Enabling Western Australia’s Full Potential
There are enormous opportunities in Western Australia but the pace of change in the state is slow.
In line with Mannifera’s commitment to geographic equity, WA+ received funding to build a coalition of civil society partners in Western Australia that will work closely with the state government to influence large-scale systems change addressing critical environment, social and economic issues.
