Women are leading Australia’s giving revolution. 

Women are leading Australia’s giving revolution. Will the sector catch up to enable their giving at scale?

Thank you to Philanthropy Australia, a She Gives sector partner, for continuing to platform the potential of women’s giving.

This piece reinforces what we are seeing through She Gives Growing Women’s Giving in Australia. Women are already leading Australia’s giving. From shaping household decisions to driving collective and community-led models, the evidence is clear. Women are giving more, giving differently, and want to have greater impact.

The opportunity now is how we, as a sector and community, respond to enable this at scale.

Thank you to Krystian Seibert, former Associate Commissioner, Productivity Commission and now Executive Director, Policy & Sector Development , Philanthropy Australia, who was part of the She Gives Research Advisory Group, for his continued leadership in this space.

As Krystian reflects “Transformative change is often not the result of a single breakthrough, but rather the outcome of many and varied changes to attitudes, norms, practices, and choices adding up over time and building on each other, to create a new and different picture over time. I think that certainly applies to evolving our culture of giving but it requires focus and effort to drive this transformation. That’s why the work of the She Gives initiative is so essential. This new research report provides a strong evidence base to build on the success of the initiative and galvanise the next stage of action across the philanthropic sector and wider community.”
