Leilani Fatupaito – Swinburne Branch Committee & National Councillor

Ruth is a strong advocate and unionist for professional staff rights within the education sector. Driven by empathy and compassion, she has worked tirelessly and successfully to campaign for women’s rights and increased representation of women in the NTEU.

Ruth is considered and well balanced in her approach, to ensure NTEU efforts are best placed to enhance inclusivity and equity of our diverse membership, particularly for women and women of colour.

Ruth has my full support and endorsement to be our Assistant Secretary. The evidence speaks for itself.
