RESET 2020 Report

In March 2020, as the potential COVID-19 impacts for the social sector began to unfold, the Xfactor Collective realised that it pandemic was likely to have a profound impact on the social sector. In May 2020 a wide range of social sector organisations across Australia participated in a survey conducted to establish the impact of COVID-19 on the social sector and where organisations needed help.

Over September and October 2020  Xfactor Collective in collaboration with its partners conducted the second interval of the survey.
