The Allan Labor Government is recognising women who have made outstanding contributions to Victoria through the Victorian Honour Roll of Women.
Minister for Women Natalie Hutchins today opened nominations for the 2025 Victorian Honour Roll of Women, calling on Victorians to nominate someone inspirational to join the Roll.
Victorians are encouraged to nominate women from all walks of life, cultural backgrounds and age groups to be recognised across four categories - Local Champion, Change Agent, Emerging Leader and Trailblazer.
The Labor Government's Victorian Honour Roll of Women celebrates the outstanding contributions made by Victorian women and acknowledges the many ways in which they make lasting contributions to the community.
The Honour Roll celebrates their achievements across fields such as social justice, health science, research, arts, environment, law, media and education.
Last year's 21 Honour Roll inductees included folk musician turned Federal-Court judge Judy Small AM, renowned endocrinologist Associate Professor Ada Cheung and Yorta Yorta artist and cultural practitioner, Aunty Rochelle Patten.
More than 750 women have been inducted since the Honour Roll of Women began in 2001.
Nominations open today and close on Sunday 16 March. To find out more and nominate yourself or someone you know, visit vic.gov.au/honour-roll-women.
As stated by Minister for Women Natalie Hutchins
"Whether it's changing lives in a lab or in their community, the Honour Roll is a chance to highlight incredible women from all walks of life who spend their days making a difference."
"The Honour Roll recognises outstanding and determined women who lead in their fields, are strengthening their communities or have bright futures ahead of them."
"The inductees serve as role models for everyone as we strive towards gender equality, so if you know someone who deserves to be recognised among these remarkable women, please nominate them now."
