Event description

Please join the Centre for Social Impact UWA, Royal Life Saving and The Hon Dr Tony Buti MLA, Minister for Education, Aboriginal Affairs, Citizenship and Multicultural Interests for the launch of our new report:

The Social Impact of Community Pools in the Pilbara

The Centre for Social Impact UWA evaluated the programs delivered by Royal Life Saving and social investment by BHP at the Port Hedland, Newman, Yandeyarra, and Jigalong community pools.

The research found these programs delivered physical activity, education, health and employment outcomes and the report highlights many opportunities for further increasing the benefits in terms of social connection, well-being and economic participation.

We look forward to celebrating the successful completion of the project and exploring the significant potential of remote community swimming pools.

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.
