Elena Rosenman
Elena Rosenman is the Women’s Legal Centre ACT’s CEO, and the Chair of Women’s Legal Services Australia. Elena is a passionate advocate for the role of specialist, community-based organisations to respond to gender-based violence and discrimination.
Under her leadership, the Women’s Legal Centre ACT has quadrupled its resources and increased from a staff team of 6 to more than 30. She has led a remarkable agenda of transformation and growth. This includes introducing new practice areas and partnerships and implementing a multi-disciplinary, trauma-informed service model involving a team of specialist social workers and other professionals who work alongside legal practitioners to keep women safe and engaged throughout their legal matter.
Prior to joining the Centre, Elena worked in the Human Rights Branch of the Commonwealth Attorney-General’s Department, providing strategic advice on key sex discrimination and LGBTIQ human rights issues to the Australian Government.
