SEWF @_SEWF comes to Australia 2022 and we get to set the agenda! Regos now open for #socent Unconference 21-July where it's crucial WA answers questions like: What does our sector represent? What themes do we want? What policy do we need?   Lets go WA! events.humanitix.com/social-enterpr…

It's past time for the @MarkMcGowanMP govt to support WA's social enterprise sector. Eastern states have seen supported across the political divide, yet we miss a once in a generation opportunity to leverage private capital for public good here #socent 7news.com.au/politics/lnp-p…

WA is a decade behind the leaders across the States in social enterprise and impact investment. A $5B surplus and 4 years til the next election. Political inertia on setting WA onto an economic diversification leadership course could have inter-generational impact. #WaitAwhile

Congratulations to the Queensland Social Enterprise sector on continued State Govt support for the sector. Western Australia needs to follow this policy best practice @benwyatt @MarkMcGowanMP @simonemcgurk @DawsoMLC

A big congrats to Katie and her team on the launch of this new venture. We'll be stopping by whenever we can to sample their coffee and support their work. ☕️@pink_cocoon_ @PFlatau @SocEntWA #endhomelessnesswa

Scraps in tonight's Federal Budget vs the PM's own Social Impact Investment Taskforce recommendations. Contrast $3m or $6m over 4 years vs $10Billion per annum fossil fuel subsidies. #socent #impinv #socentau
