Sydney
| BPW Sydney is the longest running Business and Professional Women's Club in Australia, having been established on 17 July 1939. BPW Sydney is an active lobby group and we take full advantage of our NGO status to lobby government and corporate organisations on matters related to business and professional women, including for more women in leadership and decision-making roles. If you would like to join with other professional and business women to advance a progressive social justice agenda focused on women’s empowerment issues related to: economic empowerment for women and women in leadership and decision-making roles, contact us. As part of BPW Australia, the BPW Sydney club practically addresses issues facing women in the world of work. We're also interested in developing campaign-matched education and potentially, training events. We provide social support and networking, and give you a way to meet people who are also interested in social issues. We also facilitate access to the scholarships, awards, conferences and discounts on offer with BPW Australia. |

Strathfield
| We are a dynamic group of women who meet regularly to learn, share and network with great guest speakers. We welcome guests and encourage new members. We offer a friendly space for women to share their experiences, knowledge, and to seek ideas and support to improve their own lives. It is also a great way to make new contacts and forge new friendships with a diverse group: in race, religion, culture and workplaces. The dynamics of our group encourages debate; the sharing of ideas, and the support of each other. At meetings we provide opportunities for personal and professional development, and for exchanging ideas in a non-threatening environment. Together we aim to make a direct contribution to promoting gender equality and improving the future of women: locally; across Australia and the World, through our International Group and our affiliation with the United Nations to realise the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. Location: Club Burwood

Central Coast
| BPW Central Coast is a not for profit organisation that brings together women of all ages who value the camaraderie and sense of belonging that can be achieved through a network of women. However, at BPW Central Coast our aims go beyond that, and, by being part of our team, you will be engaged in projects and events that seek to empower you and other women to #makeithappen. If you prefer, we can also meet over coffee. Otherwise, simply register for one of our up and coming events by clicking on the blue box at the top right hand corner of our home page. We have a more specific emphasis on education, professional development and self improvement compared with most women's clubs. There is no restriction on who can join. Unemployed and retired women who wish to join are most welcome.
If you would like to learn more about how you can make a difference for women and girls in Australia and oversees then come meet with us. We enjoy social events and learn from workshops and make lifelong friendships. I look forward to meeting you soon.
