The Centre for Social Impact UWA (CSI UWA) creates and delivers education that transforms, research that informs best practice, and public engagement that inspires and mobilises change makers.

We develop solutions that are rigorous and purpose-driven and work with people, communities and organisations across Australia to grow their capabilities.

The Centre for Social Impact is a collaboration of four universities: Swinburne University of Technology, Flinders University, University of New South Wales and The University of Western Australia.

Together as a network, our purpose is to catalyse positive change, to help enable others to achieve social impact.

CSI UWA is proud to host Danjoo Koorliny Walking Together, a large-scale, long-term systems change project designed and led by Aboriginal leaders to help us walk together as Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people towards 2029 (200 years of colonisation in Perth) and beyond.
