WHITE RIBBON AUSTRALIA

We are pleased to announce Communicare has finalised a contract of sale to acquire White Ribbon Australia’s intellectual property and remaining assets. Communicare’s decision to acquire White Ribbon Australia further enables our long-standing commitment to eliminating violence against women and children.  

White Ribbon Australia begins a new and very exciting chapter.  Our focus is to re-engage with the tremendous network of people and organisations committed to reducing gendered violence. We will work alongside communities and stakeholders around the country, highlighting the need for boys and men to be engaged in what is a major national issue.

The White Ribbon movement expressly relies on the commitment of individuals, communities, businesses and schools around the country.  Our focus is on being custodians of the movement, not owners of a brand.  White Ribbon Australia is an enabler of the movement, the real work happens each day through the commitment of people like you.

We have an opportunity to build on this platform, whilst enhancing the collaborative approach of the White Ribbon movement. We are committed to working in partnership; in a collaborative and evidence-based way, to continue to reimage, redesign and reinvent what we do to see greater progress in the prevention of gendered violence.

We’re keen to hear from you about your experiences with White Ribbon Australia and what you’d like to see the organisation focus on. We ask that you read our Stakeholder Consultation Paper click here and to respond to a brief survey to help us better understand your views click here

We’ll be engaging further over the coming weeks as we prepare the next White Ribbon Australia Strategic Plan. The White Ribbon Australia website is currently being rebuilt and will be unveiled in June 2020. As a result, fundraising and donations are temporarily on hold until the new website is launched. 

Please continue to monitor our progress at whiteribbon.org.au

We look forward to working with you as part of the next chapter of the White Ribbon movement.

Yours sincerely
