There will be four categories featured for next year's awards:
- Leadership and Advocacy
- First Nations Woman
- Human Rights
- Strengthening Healthy Communities
City of Greater Geelong chief executive Ali Wastie
There are so many remarkable women in the Greater Geelong region doing incredible things every day, and it is such a special occasion when we gather to recognise their achievements and contributions to our community.I encourage everybody to think about all of the marvellous women in their lives and consider nominating them for one of these awards.
To be eligible for an award a nominee must live, work or study in the Greater Geelong region and identify as a woman or gender non-binary person.
Organisations and community groups based in the Greater Geelong region can also be nominated.
