Applicants should demonstrate how their project will:

- support women to build skillsets sought by industry to foster the next wave of mentors and role-models, and support re-entry into the workforce

- an entity incorporated in Australia and a trading corporation
- an incorporated trustee on behalf of a trust
- an incorporated association
- an incorporated not for profit organisation
- a publicly funded research agency (PFRA) as defined in section 14 of the guidelines.
