The Parenthood urges action on gendered violence, highlighting the vital role early childhood education and care can play. We call for crucial policy changes to protect and empower women and children across Australia. Read more in our newsletter: theparenthood.org.au/newsletter_may…
Friends and family of Molly Ticehurst, the woman who was allegedly murdered by her former partner while he was on bail, are calling for bail law reforms in NSW named in her honour. womensagenda.com.au/latest/mollys-…
“In this National Cabinet meeting, we want to see the epidemic of gendered violence met with ambitious, deliberate and immediate action and appropriate funding. But broader reforms to address inequity are also crucial,” says our CEO @georgiedent: theparenthood.org.au/tackling_viole…
THE PARENTHOOD URGES NATIONAL CABINET TO BE DELIBERATE & AMBITIOUS IN TACKLING VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN AND CHILDREN Our media release 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽
Enough with the words. With a budget looming and a nation mourning, the PM has an opportunity to lead and change our violence reality, writes Angela Priestley. womensagenda.com.au/latest/eds-blo…
🚨 Help needed! We seek stories for our 2024 report on early childhood education challenges in rural Australia. Struggles accessing care affect children's development, parents' work, and local economies. Share your experience - let's push for change! theparenthood.org.au/rural_stories
"This is my 45th year writing stories about violence against women. The only thing changing is the increasing numbers and the increasing toll on women, all women, across our country." Make sure you read @JennaPrice's piece @canberratimes: canberratimes.com.au/story/8605702/… #auspol
"@unionsaustralia is calling for the significant pay boost to be applied to awards in largely feminised occupations." 💯%‼️ Early childhood educators, disability workers, and hairdressers should get a pay rise in this year’s annual wage decision. smh.com.au/politics/feder… #auspol
We want loads of things but ahead of this year's Budget we REALLY want the Albanese government to do 2 things: 1. Fund a decent pay rise for early childhood educators & teachers 2. Remove the Activity Test for the Child Care Subsidy Sign our petition: buff.ly/3UeHiXT
Since October 2023, children and families in Gaza, the West Bank and Israel have endured unimaginable horrors. The fate of hostages, including two children, remains uncertain. The impact of the violence on children in the Gaza Strip has been devastating. They need a #Ceasefire.
"We are not safe," writes @angelapriestley @WomensAgenda as 25 women have been killed by violence so far this year - 9 in April alone. This needs to stop. Violence against women must end. womensagenda.com.au/latest/eds-blo…
"How ‘childcare deserts’ are holding Australia back" - great podcast by @NourHaydar @GuardianAus. Listen to it on Spotify or here: theguardian.com/australia-news… #auspol
“I love walking in & seeing all the smiley faces, watching them learn new skills & seeing how proud of themselves they are.” Molly Ticehurst was a mother of one & worked as an early childhood educator in Forbes. Yesterday, she was murdered. Heartbreaking. smh.com.au/national/nsw/m…
💯💯💯
"Childcare workers desert industry for higher wages in aged care," writes Euan Black @FinancialReview. Now the pressure is on the federal government to fund a similar increase for early childhood workers. afr.com/work-and-caree…
