Supporting The Development of Current and Aspiring Leaders

We’re offering full attendance grants to women and gender-diverse people who play active leadership roles in their community but are unable to attend due to lack of funding or employer support. These grants cover the full ticket price for the recipient to attend the Symposium of their choice. Through this initiative we’re supporting the development of a pipeline of leaders in different communities, and ensuring diverse views are represented at the events. We encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women, women of color, those from underrepresented backgrounds, women with disabilities (offering support for accessible attendance), and non-binary, a-gender, and gender non-conforming individuals. Applicants who are emerging and/or aspiring leaders who play active roles at community, local, and state levels, and within the not-for-profit sector, will be highly regarded. Applicants must be 18 years or older.

Application Close Friday 28th March 2025.

All applicants will be contacted 6 weeks before their chosen event to learn the outcome of their application.
