The women who shape a place should be part of its story. 🚴🏻‍♀️At Lilydale Gateway Reserve, public art celebrates six local sportswomen, including elite cyclist, mountain bike coach and exercise physiologist Rachel H**e.

Rachel’s achievements in elite cycling and mountain biking show what women can achieve in sport, while her advocacy encourages women and girls to challenge gender expectations and pursue their own ambitions.

Created by Yarra Ranges artist Paul Sonsie, the artwork sits within the playspace — a place where local children play, families gather and the community connects.

That connection matters. For young girls growing up in the Yarra Ranges these women are part of the landscape and part of the local story.

Her story is on the map. Explore Rachel H**e and other women’s histories on Her Place’s Finding Her Map (link in bio)

Meet Anthea Loucas Bosha Anthea Loucas Bosha.

As CEO of Food + Drink Victoria, Anthea’s leadership is about building connections, creating a supportive culture and bringing people together around a shared purpose.

Anthea joined Food + Drink Victoria in 2018 after a 25-year career in media, including 14 years as Editor-in-Chief of Gourmet Traveller.

🥗Today, she champions the people behind Victoria’s food and drink industry from producers, chefs and farmers to entrepreneurs and hospitality businesses.

One of the achievements she is most proud of is fostering supportive and collaborative workplaces. She has also seen first-hand what collaboration can achieve on an industry-wide scale: the campaign brought the industry together to raise $195,000 in ten days to support bushfire recovery efforts.

🎤At Her Place Museum’s She Leads 2026, Anthea will share her impactful experience.

Join the conversationat She Leads 2026 and connect with innovative ethical leaders across sectors.

As National Science Week comes to a close, with its theme of “Seeds of Science: Nurturing knowledge for all,” we’re celebrating three women whose scientific contributions made an impact.

These women are featured on the Finding Her map (link in bio) where you can discover their full stories connected to places where their contributions are remembered and commemorated.

🌿 Jean Galbraith — botanist, author and conservationist whose lifelong study of Australian plants made an important contribution to our understanding of the natural world. The Jean Galbraith Reserve at Tyers commemorates her contribution to botany and conservation.

🧬 Dr Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw — biotechnologist, entrepreneur and founder of Biocon. At 21, Kiran came to Australia to study malting and brewing at what is now Federation University Australia’s Ballarat campus, where she topped her course. She went on to become a pioneering leader in biotechnology and one of India’s most successful entrepreneurs. Her Australian connection is commemorated through a road named in her honour at the university’s Mt Helen campus.

🌱 Maisie Carr — ecologist and botanist whose pioneering research into grazing and soil erosion transformed our understanding of Victoria’s alpine environment. The exclusion plots she established on the Bogong High Plains are still monitored today, forming one of Australia’s longest-running ecological experiments. Artefacts connected to Maisie’s life and work are also currently on display at Her Place Women’s Museum.

There are many more women in science whose stories deserve to be remembered.

Through Finding Her, we’re helping put those stories on the map.

Because women have always been part of the story of science.
