Community wealth building is a systems approach to economic development that creates an inclusive\, sustainable economy built on locally rooted and broadly held ownership. \nIn partnership with Linkwest.

An investment into the care economy is an investment into quality public and community sector jobs. If areas like care work are not included as part of WA’s economic recovery efforts\, the very real risk is run that we will inadvertently extend or further entrench that wage gap and fail to address growing need.
