More than 600,000 migrants are expected to enter Australia over the next two years, according to the Australian Government. And as Home Affairs Minister Claire O’Neil told the National Press Club in April, Australia has a real opportunity to “tap into the potential of people that are already here … such as migrant women”.

This Melbourne-based organisation does just that.

SisterWorks chief executive Ifrin Fittock says the not-for-profit social enterprise has helped more than 2,000 migrant women navigate life in Australia by providing training and support to help overcome social isolation.

With a vision of assisting migrant women in achieving economic empowerment, SisterWorks delivers hands-on opportunities to help build connections in the hope of making Australia feel like home to them.
