Public, private and community sector organisations can also use this information to develop policies and take action to support women’s progress and to achieve gender equality. The report also fulfils the State Government’s continuing commitment to provide regular updates on the status and progress of WA women. This report recognises that barriers to women’s progress persist and that there is a shared responsibility to improve the status of women and address the barriers to their progress.
