BRISBANE — The Festival of Women's Ideas into Action conference, held on March 3-4 at the Power House in New Farm turned into a conference on the crisis facing women's welfare services.

Attended by 200 women, most of them working in women's refuges and referral and counselling services, the conference consisted of a series of workshops and panel discussions. Regrettably, there was no plenary session to put resolutions for any action.
