Women’s Health Grampians’ innovative Equality for All project seeks to raise awareness of diversity and empower local women to lead change within their communities.
WHG has recruited 11 women from a range of diverse backgrounds to be Equality Advocates. Equality Advocates have received training to enable them to present on their lived experiences and support CoRE members to develop a deeper understanding of effective strategies to reduce discrimination and the barriers to equality.
Equality Advocates are able to speak at CoRE organisations, events and workshops. Equality Advocates will also be able to meet one-to-one with CoRE members to talk about equality for all, diversity and inclusion for all women.
