Department of Communities

At the Department of Communities, the concept of People, Place and Home,
describes the essence of why the Department exists, and why its work is
important to everyone in Western Australia.
The Department works to advance opportunities, community participation and
the quality of life of the people it supports, with a clear focus on inclusion, building
resilience and meeting individual needs.
Priority areas for the Department’s Women’s Interests portfolio are the
promotion of women in leadership and the support of women’s economic
independence.
In practice, the Department partners with government and non-government
organisations to improve outcomes for women through scholarship programs
and at events such as CEDA’s Women in Leadership Series and the Skills West
Expo.
In addition, it delivers workshops on financial literacy and workforce
reengagement, provides support for the Techtrails school incursion program and
offers grants to community organisations to deliver women’s initiatives.
The Women’s Report Card is produced by the department every three years,
cataloguing Western Australia’s progress in key gender related issues.
WA Department of Communities has been a CEDA member since 2017.

Edith Cowan University
Twitter: @ECU
ECU is a young, progressive university with an enviable reputation for teaching
excellence. In 2019, and for the fourth year in a row, ECU received the top
undergraduate teaching quality ranking of all public universities in Australia. This
makes ECU one of just two public universities – and the only one in WA – to
have achieved such a consistently high endorsement for teaching quality.
In 2018, ECU was one of 11 universities and one of only 15 organisations
nationally to achieve the internationally-recognised award of Bronze Institutional
Accreditation in the first pilot of the Athena SWAN Charter in Australia. The
University has also been awarded the Workplace Gender Equality Agency
Citation as an Employer of Choice for Gender Equality for the last three years.
In 2019, ECU has been ranked sixth in the world for Gender Equality in the new
Times Higher Education (THE) University Impact Rankings. These rankings show
how the global higher education sector is contributing to the achievement of the
United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). ECU’s Vice-Chancellor
is a Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) Gender Pay Equity
Ambassador, a CEO for Gender Equity (WA), and a national Male Champion of
Change in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).
ECU is a university that values diversity and is striving to be a beacon for gender
equality. This is why it is so meaningful that ECU is the only university in Australia
named after a woman; Edith Dircksey Cowan, the first woman elected to an
Australian Parliament, who believed education was the key to removing barriers
and whose life was dedicated to championing social reform. ECU continues to
strive for gender equality as an educator and an employer to deliver social and
economic benefits.
ECU has been a CEDA member since 1995.

Research and policy
CEDA’s only agenda is to pursue good public policy to progress Australia’s
