The Order of Australia awards were created in 1975 by then prime minister Gough Whitlam. The awards replaced the British Imperial honours system, which invariably recognised rich, powerful men.
Yet that disparity, up until 2016, has been significant as women have made up just 30 per cent of recipients. Here's how the Order of Australia awards have panned out by gender since 2012, according to Office of the Official Secretary to the Governor-General.
