A first-of-its-kind review will investigate sexual harm, sexual harassment, and systemic discrimination in the contemporary Australian music industry.

“The music industry is special, it is full of inspiring, creative and passionate people working hard and doing what they love, but it is still a workplace,” comments Herd on the launch of the Review. “No one should be subjected to bullying, sexual harassment or sexual assault while at work.
