The UN theme for International Women’s Day 2024 is economic pathways to gender equality. We’re joined by Naomi Lewis from Homelessness NSW to discuss gender specific issues affecting women experiencing homelessness and how securing housing can lead to economic empowerment.

Naomi Lewis is Senior Project Officer, Together Home at Homelessness NSW and a former senior case manager for the Salvation Army.

An extended version of this conversation is available via the Wide Open Air Exchange podcast including more on the Housing First principles and a discussion of what it means to do anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, person-centred social work.
