Social enterprises operate first and foremost to provide opportunities to those in need. 

One way they can do so is in the name itself: by providing social connection.

The Social Studio in Collingwood does exactly that by providing education and teaching opportunities to refugee women from a wide range of backgrounds. CEO Dewi Cooke details how the Studio’s free fashion school not only provides refugee women a path to a meaningful and satisfying career, but also fosters social connections for its students and teachers.

Teacher and student Muhubo Sulieman shares her experience since joining the studio, including her first exhibition at a gallery, showcasing work inspired by her early life in Somalia.

Hear how Dewi, Muhubo and the Social Studio connect diverse communities in the latest episode of Getting it Right with Craig Foster.

Is there a way to scale a good decision so that it works not just for your business, but for society?

In our new podcast Getting it Right, we’re turning to the people who have the answers.

Getting it Right is all about hiring, buying, working with purpose and creating inclusive workplaces.

You’ll meet industry leaders who’ve gone above and beyond to provide opportunities for those who need them. You’ll also hear from the people who took those opportunities and ran with them.

Inclusive employment and social procurement is ultimately about people–and in Getting it Right, you’ll hear real people’s stories, you’ll learn the benefits of being curious and looking in the right places, and you’ll get ideas about how you can buy and hire with purpose.

Season 1: Host and former Socceroos captain Craig Foster mobilised his profile as a career footballer to start a career in human rights activism. And for Craig, social procurement was the key to unlocking one of his most successful activism endeavors to date.

Season 2: Host Rae Johnston gives you real-world skills and practical tips to create a more dynamic and diverse workforce; Rae unpacks the hiring processes that work and guides you on best-practice principles for recruiting.
