Improving investment in gender equality by increasing the understanding and application of a gender lens to philanthropic partnerships.
Undertaken in partnership with Australians Investing in Women, this project aims to improve investment in gender equality by increasing the understanding and application of a gender lens to philanthropic partnerships. Drawing on literature, sector expertise and two paradigmatic cases of partnerships investing in housing, and with attention to questions of intersectionality and lived experience, the project will develop a framework for partnerships, which will be disseminated by Australians Investing In Women and Melbourne Social Equity Institute.
This project is conducted in partnership with Australians Investing in Women and funded by Paul Ramsay Foundation.
