2025-26 LGBTIQA+ Inclusion Grants Program

In 2025–26, LGBTIQA+ Inclusion Grants Program supports initiatives that align with two priority areas of Western Australia’s LGBTIQA+ Inclusion Strategy 2025-2035:

  • Belonging, connection and visibility.
  • Safety, equity and wellbeing.

Projects should consider how they could deliver better outcomes for LGBTIQA+ people and communities to:

  • Implement LGBTIQA+ inclusive practices, programs and services.
  • Strengthen workforce capability and leadership in supporting LGBTIQA+ people.
  • Build partnerships across sectors for an integrated approach to activities aimed at developing better outcomes for LGBTIQA+ people and communities.
