Despite the varied and critical roles that women and girls play in our communities, they continue to experience inequality, disadvantage and violence as a result of their gender.
Women NSW is the lead NSW government policy unit responsible for improving the quality of life of all women in NSW. Our purpose is to promote gender equality, and advance the social, economic and political status of women and girls of all cultures, ages and backgrounds. We achieve this by:
developing and implementing policies, programs and system reforms
innovation and collaboration both across government and the broader community
developing and collecting performance and outcomes data
coordinating the reporting of domestic and family violence measures to the NSW Government
