Purpose
Muslim Women Australia has worked for almost 40 years to support vulnerable members in the community in accessing support services in times of need. MWA takes a holistic, whole of community approach to service provision and capacity building. The physical, financial, social, emotional and spiritual health of individuals is crucial to a healthy society.
The purpose of this survey is to detail a coordinated, measured and fluid response to service delivery and community health and wellbeing, to the emerging and evolving nature of COVID 19.
Our objectives are to:
- Map the evolving nature of the response to COVID19 from government and social services sector
- To document MWA response to the COVID 19 epidemic, across the organisations service streams
- To attempt to capture the social implications of COVID 19 on communities at a grassroots level
- To inform how MWA can better deliver services in the context of a pandemic
