The City of Greater Bendigo is offering grants of up to $1500 to local community groups and organisations who would like to hold events or activities during the upcoming 16 Days of Activism which takes place from November 25 to December 10, 2026.
City of Greater Bendigo Healthy Communities and Environments Director Jess Howard said 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-based Violence is an international campaign that calls on communities to take action to prevent violence against women and promote respect, safety and equality.
“The City of Greater Bendigo is encouraging local groups, schools, organisations and networks to apply for a grant and hold an event that will help prevent gender-based violence in our community,” Ms Howard said.
“We want all local groups who would like to hold an activity, event, conversation, or a creative or educational project that promotes respect and gender equality during this year’s 16 Days of Activism program to apply for this funding.
“Gender-based violence is a serious issue in our community and this is a great opportunity for local groups to help promote respect, equality and safety in our community.”
Funded activities must be delivered during the 16 Days of Activism November 25 to December 10, 2026 and will be included within the broader calendar of events promoted by the City.
