According to the Productivity Commission (2010), Australia's non-profit sector is the sixth largest in the world, after the Netherlands, Ireland, Belgium, Israel and the United States, and is larger than the nonprofit sector in the United Kingdom and many European countries. According to the ACNC Report for 2015 (ACNC 2016), non-profits had a total income of over $134 billion, representing 8.3% of Australia's gross domestic product (GDP); donations to the sector totalled $11.2 billion; charities employed more than 1.2 million people, representing 10% of Australia's workforce; and there were approximately three million volunteers involved in the sector. | Publication Type: | Book Chapter | Source of Publication: | Inclusive Leadership : Negotiating Gendered Spaces, p. 21-42 | Publisher: | Palgrave Macmillan | Place of Publication: | Cham, Switzerland | ISBN: | 9783319606651 9783319606668 |
