Women's Forum Australia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Women's Forum Australia (WFA) is a think tank established in 2005 with the aim of providing research and policy-related work to improve the social, economic, health of Australian women.[1] It has also been described as focusing on "anti-trans campaigning" and having "links to far-right politics", with members campaigning against abortion access, transgender rights, and promoting conspiracy theories around Wi-Fi.[2][3]

Activities

The group has been active in combatting negative stereotyping of women.[4] The group has supported legislative changes to advance adoption as a suitable alternative for women.[5] The group has been characterised as "pro-life",[6] and has similarly been involved in matters relating to IVF[7] The group was involved in the effort to ban the distribution of RapeLay, a video game that featured sexual violence.[8]

In 2007, the group released a magazine Faking it, dealing with the sexualisation of women and girls facilitated by the fashion and beauty industries.[9]

In 2013, chair of WFA Louise Brosnan withdrew her children from school over concerns about the presence of wi-fi at the school. Another board member, Dr Marie-Therese Gibson resigned as principal of Tangara School for Girls, claiming health dangers of wi-fi.[3]

In 2023, WFA led a campaign against Big W's stocking of Welcome to Sex, a sex education book aimed at adolescents. In response to abuse of staff members, Big W removed the book from its physical stores while continuing to sell it on their website.[2]

People

The journalist, Melinda Tankard Reist was a founding director of the group.[10]
