About Us
Singlehood is on the rise, and Singlehood Australia is igniting toward a social, cultural, and economic transformation that includes single people in the heart of all decision-making.
Singlehood Australia is a registered charity founded by Donna Ward and a volunteer Board of Directors in 2024 with the purpose to educate, raise awareness, and promote public debate on the challenges presented for single people living in a society and economy that privileges couples and families.
We value a society that respects and values the diverse expressions of singlehood, includes the challenges presented by all relationship and parental statuses and their intersection with gender, sexuality, cultural and religious background, age, and physical, emotional and mental abilities. We believe in fairness achieved through both equity and equality, and work toward a society in which everyone experiences an unwavering sense of belonging, and is empowered to champion social justice through positive, solution-focussed approaches.
While Singlehood Australia is dedicated to achieving policy change that achieves social inclusion and economic equality for single Australians, we are aware we operate within an international context. To this end we host the International Singlehood Advocates Network which seeks the adoption of singlehood conventions by the European Union and the United Nations.
