”It’s Not About The Money (Australia)” explores why Australian women are more likely to experience lower levels of financial wellbeing, dispelling myths and advocating for systemic solutions to create a nation where gender doesn’t determine financial outcomes.Australia is one of the wealthiest nations on earth, but your gender can determine how much you share in that wealth. Australian women are almost twice as likely as men to experience financial insecurity, lower levels of financial wellbeing, and poverty throughout our lives as men.The narrative is often that women are poor money managers, we lack financial literacy, make poor decisions, and just need to take control to improve our situation. The reality is grounded in systemic causes such as the gender pay gap, the gender super gap, family violence including economic abuse, the burden of caring, domestic duties and mental load women disproportionately carry, all constraining our capacity to earn, build resilience, and achieve equitable financial outcomes.If we are serious about creating a nation where gender does not determine financial security, we need to tackle the root cause of gender inequality through effective economic, political, and social policy and action."It's Not About The Money (Australia)" considers from an intersectional perspective why we need to stop telling individuals to solve the problems they didn’t create and start investing in systemic solutions.https://itsnotaboutthemoneyaus.podbean.com/
