Women and Leadership Symposium - Partial grants

The Australian Women’s Leadership Symposiums are a national series of events focused on the experiences of women leaders in the contemporary workforce. Held annually, in every state and territory, the Symposiums have been running for over ten years and have become the most highly attended women’s leadership events in the country.

About the grants

Since its creation, a key element in the continued success of the Symposiums has been their broad appeal to women across all industries, sectors and occupations. In addition to the obvious benefits of cross industry collaboration, the diverse mix of attendees often contributes to some very interesting debate and a strong sense of collective empowerment.

Each year, to help support this diversity, Women & Leadership Australia (WLA) offers partial attendance grants to a limited number of attendees across a number of industries. In 2018 we will be offering 100 partial attendance grants to women working in the farming and agriculture industry. The attendance grants will be redeemable at each of the eight Symposium events and will be awarded on a first come first serve basis.
