Singlehood is on the rise and Singlehood Australia is igniting a social, cultural, and economic transformation that includes single people in the heart of all decision-making.

Singlehood: The art of life without a partner.  

Singlehood Australia promotes the social inclusion and economic equality of everyone without a partner and upholds their right to equity, dignity, and respect.

Singlehood Australia is dedicated to a world where single people, couples, and families interact equally with the economy, the workplace, government services, the market, and the urban environment. A world where single people are included in our social system—the law, social security, health, disability, aged care, housing, emergency responses to public health crises, catastrophic weather events, and war, should it come crashing on our shores.

Singlehood is on the rise in Australia

26%

of Australian homes are one-person households, up from 24% in 2016. The ABS anticipates up to 27% by 2041.

55%

of those living alone are women, and half of these women are 65 or older.

1 in 4

women today are not having children, and this trend is expected to continue.

It’s safe to say singlehood is fast becoming a conventional and valued way of Australian life.
