The winners of the 2021 Australian of the Year awards are all women from diverse backgrounds. They have been honoured for their service to Australian communities. And for the first time in the award program's 61 year history, a Tasmanian has been named Australian of the Year.
The 2021 Australian of the Year awards have honoured four women, each from diverse backgrounds and ages.
A young woman who advocates for sexual assault survivors, an Aboriginal elder dedicated to cultural independence and education, a social entrepreneur helping women access personal hygiene products and a migrant woman using her lived experience to help others in distress, are among the recipients this year.
