The NSW Government is looking for up to 12 new members to join the NSW Women’s Advisory Council (WAC). The WAC will play a vital role in promoting gender equality by advising the government on issues that impact women and girls across the state.

The WAC replaces the former NSW Council for Women’s Economic Opportunity with an expanded scope to address a wide range of issues affecting women and girls.

The WAC will provide expert advice in the three priority areas outlined in the NSW Women’s Strategy 2023-2026: economic opportunities and advancement, health and wellbeing, and participation and empowerment. WAC members will also contribute to the implementation of the strategy and engage with community organisations.
