Welcome

The Australasian Council of Women and Policing is working to improve policing for women.

It was established in August 1997 and is a growing group of women and men within police services and the community who are working together to:

  • improve the policing services provided to women;
  • improve opportunities and outcomes for women within policing;
  • participate in the global network of women in policing.

We invite you to join the Australasian Council of Women and Policing.
