Hear from sector leaders about the current state of the Australian for-purpose sector, drawing on the recently launched research report Vital support: Building resilient charities to support Australia’s wellbeing.

The research report - the fourth in the Partners in Recovery research series - reviews how the charity sector has been affected since the onset of COVID-19 and underlines the importance of strong charities for all Australians, along with a case for increased government supports to the sector.

It also presents six recommendations for action, including a Resilient Charities Fund - an idea that would support charities to develop more impactful and efficient ways to operate in a ‘with-Covid’ and ‘post-Covid’ environment.

We invite you to join us for an engaging panel discussion and Q&A with the audience.

Panellists:

Professor Kristy Muir: CEO, Centre for Social Impact
Suzie Riddell: CEO, Social Ventures Australia
Donna de Zwart: CEO, Fitted for Work
Marcia Scott: Jobs Victoria Advocate and former client, Fitted for Work
Cassie McGannon (Moderator): Associate Director, Social Ventures Australia
