Fair Agenda combines the people-power of our 43,000 strong movement with that of policy experts, service providers, survivors and other advocates to win change. We drive strategic campaigning that keeps a spotlight on problems that need solving, builds momentum behind expert-backed solutions, and mobilises community pressure when and where it can have the most impact. Fair Agenda knows that the experience and impact of gender discrimination is inseparable from other forms of discrimination. These intersecting discriminations not only compound, but also morph the barriers and obstacles different members of the community face to achieving safety, dignity and equality.
We supported Fair Agenda to advocate for removing abortion from the criminal code across Australia and to secure laws for safe, legal and compassionate access to abortion care, as well as safe zone protections to prevent picketers from harassing patients and staff at abortion clinics.
We’re supporting Fair Agenda’s work towards a future in which gender doesn’t diminish women’s safety, economic security, or agency over their lives and bodies. And we know the only way to achieve that is if we change the structures and systems that disadvantage women.
