NWSA AMWA Proposed Rules and Operation of SMS Sender ID Register
The joint NWSA and AMWA submission endorses ACMA’s proposed SMS Sender ID Register as a vital tool for women’s safety. It highlights that scams disproportionately harm women, especially CALD women, linking digital fraud to gender-based violence and identity theft. The submission calls for gender-responsive policy framing, stronger data protections, culturally tailored scam literacy programs, and inclusion of verified international SMS systems to ensure both safety and accessibility.
