Second round of Victorian Women's Leadership Grants are open

The Women’s Leadership Grants are part of the Victorian Government’s commitment to creating a community where women have equal representation and can fully participate in all aspects of community and public life.

Grants of up to $20,000 will be available to local councils, non- profit community and women’s groups in Victoria for projects and activities that:

• increase the capacity of women to participate in decision making
• increase opportunities for women’s leadership
• increase diversity among Victoria’s female leaders; in particular women from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds and Indigenous communities, rural and regional areas.
