Investing in women grassroots grant program

This was a one-off grant funding program.

This grants program aimed to:

• support and empower Victorian women
• celebrate and promote their contributions to their communities
• improve gender equality across Victoria.

Our vision is that Victorians of all genders:

• live in a safe and equal society
• have access to equal power, resources and opportunities
• are treated with dignity, respect and fairness.

We want to see progress in key facets of the lives of women and girls, with a focus on improving whole-of-community outcomes including:

• Cultural change: Victoria is free from gender stereotypes, gender roles and prejudices.
• Health and wellbeing: the health and wellbeing of Victorians are not limited by gender.
• Safety and respect: all Victorians are safe and treated with respect.
• Economic and material security: Victorians have equal access to economic and material security.

This program provided $400,000 in funding for activities across Victoria that contributed to the above goals.
