The Women in Industry program offers one-off grants of up to $150,000 for projects that help women progress into leadership roles in male-dominated industries.

The grants also support ideas and projects that:

  • assist workplaces and industry to recruit, retain and upskill women
  • increase diversity in industries where men usually work
  • help to challenge the attitudes people have about the jobs women and men do
  • clear the way for women to succeed.
