Deadline: 31-May-24
Applications are now open for a funding opportunity to eligible individuals, organisations or community groups for a project, service or activity that promotes gender equality in the Northern Territory.
Gender inequality affects the whole community, including women, men, and members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex and Asexual (LGBTQI+) communities. If you would like to undertake a project, service or activity which addresses intersectional gender-based inequalities you can apply for a general grant.
Focus Areas
- The Action Plan covers the following five key focus areas:
- Community Engagement: seeks to improve Territorians understanding about gender, gender diversity, and the drivers of gendered violence and gender inequality.
- Health and Wellbeing: recognises that sex and gender are powerful social determinants of health and wellbeing.
- Safety: seeks to ensure that all Territorians are safe, respected and able to live free from violence.
- Economic Security: targets gender inequality in the areas of education, employment and financial resilience and literacy across the life course.
- Leadership and Participation: seeks to ensure Territorians can influence the decisions that impact them.
