• Aims
The objectives of the Program are to improve outcomes for Australian women in five key focus areas:
• Women’s economic security
• Women’s workforce participation
• Women’s leadership
• Women’s safety
• International engagement

The Project grant scheme supports grant opportunities (one or more through the year) for one-off or small-scale projects that achieve tangible improvements in outcomes linking the government’s five focus areas. Grant opportunities under this scheme will seek applications that contribute to the achievement of all, one, or a combination of the five key focus area outcomes listed above.

• Eligibility
• Applications from consortia are acceptable, provided there is a lead applicant who is the main driver of the project and is eligible.
• Grants will not be awarded to projects which receive funding from another government source for the same purpose.
