Natasha Stott Despoja, former Australian Democrats leader and founder of Our Watch, has been named a Companion of the Order of Australia for her groundbreaking work on the South Australian royal commission into family violence — a deeply personal mission she says could save lives and drive gender equality. Already an Officer of the Order in 2019, she joins a prestigious list that includes former Premier Will Hodgman, math genius Terence Tao, journalist Fran Kelly, writer Gerald Murnane, and more. Among the 949 honorees, the youngest is 34-year-old Sarah Ward, and the oldest, 106-year-old Florence Drury, both celebrated for extraordinary community impact.
