However, this is not what Aurora has in mind. S.W.A.T. stands for "Smart Women with Available Time".
Those women who have chosen to give up careers to become stay at home mothers, or accompanying spouses, following partners across the globe and consequently quit working

Whilst this is yet another acronym to add to the collection (SAHM and WFHM to name but two) there is a growing challenge for employers across the globe to lure these women back to work. In the Netherlands, this is a hot topic. There is a skills shortage and talent is opting to stay home. The reality is that many women find that the reasons they left their full-time jobs are still valid reasons blocking a return to that world, even on a part-time basis.
As a result, many skilled women are looking for an alternative. They are setting up on their own, creating businesses they can run from home. Expatriate women and mothers are starting out on new career paths that fit around their lifestyles, their travels and their families. These are smart women indeed!
