Wondering where major and minor parties stand on key gender equality issues?

We've put together a summary of the commitments parties have (or haven’t) made.

You can find all the candidates in your electorate and what they’ve committed to at fairandequalpledge.org

#LeadersDebate suggesting people are worried about the economy and what it means for our children.

Feels like many are concerned about ensuring a safe and liveable climate for current and future generations as they age. Current policy offerings aren't getting us there. #AusVotes

#LeadersDebate If those competing for government want to appeal to women - here's a roadmap of policies to improve women's safety, health & economic security. fairandequalpledge.org

But so far Labor's platform delivers only partial commitments; the Coalition only limited commitments.

We asked peak bodies the key policy reforms needed to make women safer this election.
Then we asked candidates if they'd pledge to act in these areas.

In most electorates at least one candidate said yes - but far too many haven't committed to what's needed: fairandequalpledge.org #AusPol

Both NSW & VIC police stats show an uptick in DV-related assaults (along w/ down trends across many major crime areas)
Why not take on an actual crime wave for the real terror?

Victorians afraid to go to shops because of rising crime: Dutton
Eight years after warning that Victorians were afraid to go to restaurants, the opposition leader said they felt unsafe going to the shops as criminal incidents rose by 20 per cent in 12 months.

David Speers in #LeadersDebate asking about big spending announcements.

But notably no funding announced from the major parties to address threats to women's safety this election. See where candidates stand on specialist domestic, family and sexual violence services at: fairandequalpledge.org
