SisterWorks e-Hub

SisterWorks’ e-Hub works in partnership with the UNWomen SCE (Second Chance Education) program in Australia, to deliver digital educational content for women from Indigenous, displaced, migrant, refugee, and low-income backgrounds.

The aim is to provide meaningful educational and employment pathways through formal education, vocational education, and entrepreneurship training.

SisterWorks is driven by its efforts to:

- Promote learning equality by making educational content easily accessible;

- Develop life skills to ensure the women lead enriching lives with independence, a strong skill set, and support networks;

- Enhance the women’s conversational English language to facilitate participation in the community and make meaningful contributions. If you are interested to know more about us and our work, visit www.sisterworks.org.au

About the App:

The SisterWorks’ e-Hub mobile application brings together our specifically curated educational content to coach and improves the quality of lives of migrant, asylum seekers, and refugee women in our Australian community.

The content is designed with the intention of equipping the user with skills, knowledge, and training in all aspects of life in Australia, from navigating their way through the sights and sounds of our cities to honing their skills to gain employment or to start their own businesses, and furthermore, how to look after their own physical and emotional wellbeing. Our syllabus is designed into 4 main categories:

- Present Support - Information about SisterWorks, Australian culture, rights and duties, basic finances and wellbeing;

- Design and Cooking Skills - Features a variety of recycling, craft, and cooking skills to learn and develop work experience;

- Other Useful Skills - Incorporates valuable sales, marketing and communication skills, while reinforcing the fundamentals of digital literacy;

- Future Pathways - Introduces the Australian business and commerce system and future educational and employment opportunities.

Our ultimate goal is to support women to regain their self-confidence, build a strong sense of independence, business acumen and leadership, a well-developed network of professional and life mentors, and the ability to attain economic self-sufficiency.
