If you're from South Australia, send a letter to your representatives in the Legislative Council and urge them to protect the current laws and reject this dangerous bill. fair-agenda.good.do/stoptheattac...

Former One Nation member, now independent politician Sarah Game has just announced her plans to override current laws and restrict the care doctors can provide their patients. Sign up to fight this attack and keep medical decisions with patients and their medical teams.

Victim-survivors in South Australia are being failed in devastating ways, including a lack of timely access to care after sexual assault. If you're a South Australian resident, tell your local MP to urgently improve access to forensic medical examinations - fair-agenda.good.do/SAforensicex...

Our movement has had a big few months....

Federal parliament has resumed sitting this week. Our Executive Director is in Canberra to meet with decision makers in this new parliament and ensure women’s safety is kept on the national agenda.

Passionate about gender justice? Join us to turn your skills into real-world impact. We’re #hiring for roles that can be based in Brisbane, Canberra, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, or Hobart. Help drive meaningful change - apply now.

Last month, our Executive Director spoke to The Guardian about the Queensland government's plans to repeal requirements for diversity within the board overseeing the organisation of the 2032 Brisbane Olympics.

Yesterday, Fair Agenda and Sexual Assault Services Victoria met with the Victorian Attorney-General, Sonya Kilkenny, to advocate for urgent reforms to better support sexual assault victim-survivors in our justice system.

It's the start of the 2025-2026 financial year today - and that means the start of the Commonwealth Prac Payments for eligible students who have to undertake mandatory placements as part of their studies.

We did it! A major win for survivor access to care in Queensland!

Next Wednesday, 18 June, join us to stand in solidarity with First Peoples as Yoorrook Deputy Chair Commissioner, Travis Lovett completes a 400-kilometre journey at Victoria's Parliament House. This is a critical time to show up and show our support for the movement towards Treaty.

The last parliament delivered critical progress for women and gender equity.

Caring and care work is so important to our communities - and most often, it's provided by women. That's why this election we've asked all candidates to invest in our caring workforce, and the structures that support carers. fairandequalpledge.org #AusVotes #AusPol

We should all be safe at home, and free to live without fear and violence. Right now government funding decisions mean too many women in Australia are trapped with men using violence, left without the services and support they need to be and stay safe....

Wondering where major and minor parties stand on key gender equality issues? We've put together a summary of the commitments parties have (or haven’t) made. You can find all the candidates in your electorate and what they’ve committed to at fairandequalpledge.org

Did you know that the Federal Govt plays a critical role in whether you can access abortion care? While state govts set abortion laws, the Federal Govt has control over whether someone can actually afford care — like how much you can rely on Medicare for doctors appointments and scans... #AusVotes

Peter Dutton closes the #LeadersDebate with a declaration he will keep people safe in their homes. But so far we've heard no new commitments to address domestic violence - the greatest threat to women's safety in their homes. #AusVotes See where they stand: fairandequalpledge.org

#LeadersDebate shifts to support for those doing it tough & whether they'd #RaiseTheRate. Right now, the punishingly low rate of income support forces many women to make heartbreaking decisions between buying food and medicine. We've asked candidates where they stand: fairandequalpledge.org

#LeadersDebate Peter Dutton talks about keeping people safe - but what about the additional action needed to address domestic violence? Women who are bravely seeking to escape their abuser shouldn't be turned away because services aren't adequately funded by Govt. #AusPol fairandequalpledge.org

#LeadersDebate If those competing for government want to appeal to women - here's a roadmap of policies to improve women's safety, health & economic security. fairandequalpledge.org But so far Labor's platform delivers only partial commitments; the Coalition only limited commitments. #AusPol

We asked peak bodies the key policy reforms needed to make women safer this election. Then we asked candidates if they'd pledge to act in these areas. In most electorates at least one candidate said yes - but far too many haven't committed to what's needed: fairandequalpledge.org #AusPol

Good to hear Prime Minister @albomp.bsky.social mention women's health and gender equity for the first time in the #LeadersDebate - even if it was in the literal last minute. #AusPol

David Speers in #LeadersDebate asking about big spending announcements. But notably no funding announced from the major parties to address threats to women's safety this election. See where candidates stand on specialist domestic, family and sexual violence services at: fairandequalpledge.org

#LeadersDebate on housing. Social housing stock has not kept pace with population growth. At its peak, social housing made up almost one in four new homes built in Australia. Today, that number is one percent.

#LeadersDebate discussing housing policy. As @everybodyshome.bsky.social says: Social housing is essential for people on low incomes in need of a home. This includes people who have recently experienced homelessness or family violence.

Peter Dutton mentions rising grocery prices in #LeadersDebate One of the policies highlighted in Fair Agenda's Pledge is the Remote Area Allowance - 54% of the recipients are women. Right now it's not enough for bread and milk in a remote community. Find out more: fairandequalpledge.org

National Family Violence Election Forum: @larissawaters.bsky.social "We have to reform the justice system so women aren't blamed and retraumatised when they try to seek justice." #AusPol

National Family Violence Election Forum: Senator Liddle: "I want to raise one of the commitments the Coalition has to a Royal Commission into sexual abuse in Indigenous communities. I want to know what we've been doing in that time, and the new drivers."

National Family Violence Election Forum: Senator Liddle on prevention framework: "we're half way through an election campaign; I'm not yet able to tell you what's in my area for that." Notes importance of protective factors. #AusPol

National Family Violence Election Forum: Question from peak body NASASV: "will panellists commit to delivering a sexual violence prevention framework in the next term of parliament? And if so what resources will you provide to the specialist sector to deliver it?"

The No To Violence forum is on now. The most attention violence against women has received so far this election campaign (and we are only 15 mins into it) Forum includes Amanda Rishworth for Labor, Sen Kerrynne Liddle (Coalition), Sen Larissa Waters (Greens) Zoe Daniel MP (Independent) #auspol

National Family Violence Election Forum: Senator Liddle: It's important to recognise the mental health impacts of domestic and family violence. #AusPol

National Family Violence Election Forum: Minister Rishworth: The new National Partnership Agreement - the money will go to the states and territories. One of the focuses will be on children. #AusPol

National Family Violence Election Forum: @zoedaniel.bsky.social there is a need to move to guaranteed multi-year funding for specialist domestic and family violence services, and specialist legal services. It is so important as well to invest in workforce training for the sector...

National Family Violence Election Forum: @larissawaters.bsky.social: it's important that funding certainty is guaranteed for FVPLS - and pay their staff properly.

National Family Violence Election Forum: Senator Liddle: What is important is making sure people have the best possible service delivery.

National Family Violence Election Forum: Minister Rishworth: when it comes to specialist FVPLS services - the AG has announced significant investment. We'll continue to work to drive particularly a focus through the Closing the Gap framework, partnering with Aboriginal Community Controlled Orgs

National Family Violence Election Forum: Antoinette Braybrook asks party representatives how Family Violence Prevention Legal Services will be invested in. #auspol

Senator @zoedaniel.bsky.social addressing the National Family Violence Election Forum: "I'm supporting increased investment in specialist services... increasing investment in early intervention... " You can see all candidate commitments on key domestic violence policy: fairandequalpledge.org

Senator @zoedaniel.bsky.social addressing the National Family Violence Election Forum: "It's surprising there has been barely a mention of the issue of domestic violence, of sexual violence, from the major parties this election."

Senator @larissawaters.bsky.social addressing the National Family Violence Election Forum: "Everyone who reaches out and asks for help should be able to get them. We know refuges are full, we know there's a waitlist as long as your arm for trauma counselling."
