Victorian Honour Roll of Women Program

Celebrating the outstanding contributions made by Victorian women and acknowledging the many ways in which they have made a lasting contribution to our state.

Twenty-four new Honour Roll of Women inductees were announced on Tuesday 2 September 2025. A ceremony celebrating their induction was held at the Arts Centre Melbourne.

About the Honour Roll

The Victorian Honour Roll of Women recognises women who show remarkable leadership and excellence in their:

  • field of expertise, interest, or endeavour
  • commitment to the community.

The Honour Roll elevates the significant contributions of Victorian women. This includes trans women and gender diverse people.

The Honour Roll works to counter restrictive and harmful gender norms. We do this by increasing the visibility of women as role models and leaders.

The Honour Roll was established in 2001 as part of Victoria’s centenary celebrations. Just over 770 women have been inducted into the Honour Roll.
