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! https://t.co/QeyaGSBTON
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 https://t.co/CWAkInd7oN
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.

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
