It’s been a momentous few weeks for Australia with advancements in both workplace and education equity and inclusion.
On 27 February, the WGEA published base salary and total remuneration median gender pay gaps for private sector employers in Australia with 100 or more employees, and we welcomed the ambitious recommendations of the Final Report of the Australian Universities Accord, that seeks to advance tertiary-level education for more Australians and grow the economy.
The Accord is a once in a generation opportunity to change the face of this country; to achieve equity, raise productivity and prosperity, and improve standards of living. To facilitate more change-makers and strengthen social cohesion.
As we—along with universities, TAFE, governments, and industry—assess the details of this report and reflect on what they mean for our work and our ability to amplify and scale our impact, the Government’s response and funding deliberations are key. And we’re excited for what’s next.

Let’s make 2024 the year we change the story!
