Celebrating, supporting and inspiring all women who work in or aspire to work in international aid and development.
About us
Women in Aid & Development (WiAD) is an Australian-based membership organisation for all women who work in, or aspire to work in, the international aid, development and humanitarian sectors, inclusive of trans women and non-binary people. It was established by women working in the sector who believe there is much to be gained by meeting and learning from our professional women peers. We commit to supporting other women to succeed in their careers, to continue to learn to be the best versions of ourselves and to embrace challenges and opportunities. We believe we will grow alongside other women to have a more significant and positive impact on our world. Women are welcome from all disciplines to share knowledge and experience and gain insight and inspiration from others and to learn what everyone else does. Aid and development depend on cooperation and teamwork to achieve success, both within organisations and between organisations, and we know women are leaders in cooperating. We welcome you to join us at an event, as a member of our organisation or to make a contribution online. Whether you work in programs, policy, finance, fundraising, human resources, administration, and are new to the sector, a team leader, manager or board member - we all learn from each other. Join the online community - contribute, read the blog and join our community of leaders on Facebook.

🌏 As people around the world need our help more than ever, Australia’s aid has dropped to just 0.68% of the federal budget. Can you believe it? 😳 Women in Aid & Development supports Safer World for All's DAY OF ACTION and joins the call for 1% of the federal budget to be spent on Australian aid. This will make a huge impact on lives around the world. 💛 📢"I am delighted to support the Safer World for All campaign, and encourage you to support too - you are likely to have around 500 contacts - sharing this will make a difference in persuading government to increase the level of aid funding. Please join us by emailing your MP today—communication from constituents really makes a difference." - Chris Franks, WiAD Chair Visit saferworld.org.au to take action now. #SaferWorldforAll #DownUnderStepUp
