Victoria's Gender Equality Strategy 2022

Safe and Strong 2016: Victoria's Gender Equality Strategy, set out a framework for progressively building the attitudinal and behavioural change required to reduce violence against women and deliver gender equality. While Safe and Strong 2016 delivered incredible successes, there is more to be done to progress toward the ambitious but achievable goal of a gender equal Victoria.

Building on Safe and Strong 2016, the Victorian Government is developing the next Gender Equality Strategy, outlining a commitment to continuing to strive for gender equality across four priority areas; Safety, Health and Wellbeing, Economic Equity, and Leadership and Representation.
