Suprovat Sydney reported : On 21 January 2026, WSANDN (World Subnationals and Nations), a charter-based international, mission-driven Non-Profit Organisation (NPO) dedicated to human rights, human dignity, and the principles of international law, officially launched its operations in Australia at its headquarters in Duffys Forest, Sydney.
The launch event brought together community leaders, partners, and stakeholders to mark the start of WSANDN’s work across Australia, focusing on community-led economic development that strengthens local economies and creates sustainable employment.
Speaking at the event, Dr Judah V. Dominion, President of WSANDN, highlighted Australia’s strategic role in advancing grassroots initiatives:
“Australia will serve as a stepping stone for delivering successful programs at local and subnational levels. We are not going top-down — we are working bottom-up.”
How WSANDN Will Operate in Australia
WSANDN’s initiatives will be delivered through locally driven pilot programs, co-designed in partnership with councils, First Nations organisations, community groups, and local businesses. This approach ensures programs are relevant, impactful, and sustainable.
Initial focus areas include:
- Community reinvestment and local job creation
- Support for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)
- Economic participation for women and youth
- Capacity-building for existing non-profit organisations
Programs will leverage a blended funding model, combining strategic partnerships, grants, program-linked investments, and reinvested surpluses. All initiatives will align with the WSANDN Charter and be measured against clear indicators such as employment outcomes, enterprise growth, and community impact before scaling nationally.
The Australian launch also signals WSANDN’s intention to expand nationally, with pilot programs designed for evaluation and replication across multiple states and regions. The organisation is committed to collaborating with communities to build resilient local economies that foster peace, dignity, and shared prosperity.
