Ausdance WA is dedicated to supporting and advocating for the dance sector in Western Australia. Most recently, the team has been part of two major projects with the Ausdance National network…
Ausdance National Pre-Budget Submission
Late last year, the Ausdance National network worked on a 2025 Pre-Budget Submission to the Federal Government ahead of the 2025 Budget. This outlined the essential nature of dance in Australia, prioritising direct investment in services and support for First Nations dance practitioners, better safety in dance, stronger arts education, affordable and accessible venues, and fair pay for dance professionals.

Submission to the National Office for Child Safety
The Ausdance National network also made a landmark submission for Dance to the National Office for Child Safety in response to its Child Safety Annual Reporting Framework consultation paper. It is not possible to overstate the urgency expressed by Ausdance members to comprehensively address the issue of child safety. The overwhelming response of the dance sector, following substantial national consultation over more than four years, is that it should be better regulated so that the safety of children in organisations is improved.
