How we do it
Partnerships
We partner with local businesses and organisations that are also passionate about making a positive impact in Western Sydney. Our partners empower women through supporting our programs and events and gain the opportunity to create connections with our large network of local women, businesses and government.
Advocacy
We’re committed to hearing from the women of Western Sydney about the barriers they face and the opportunities they desire. We conduct research to give local women a voice and use it to develop programs, opportunities, and to advocate to government and media about what changes need to be made to allow WSW to thrive.
Consulting
With over a decade of designing and executing successful programs and activities, we work with NFPs and companies in a consulting capacity to assist with creating a practical, unique and successful initiative or program to align with the social impact goals of the institution.

Amanda Rose founded Western Sydney Women in 2015 with a mission to give the women of Western Sydney a voice, and the same opportunities as the wider Sydney community.
