ANROWS Grants
In addition to conducting its own research, ANROWS periodically commissions research grants to further develop the evidence base on violence against women and their children and support the implementation of the National Plan.
Our grant rounds are funded by the Commonwealth and state and territory governments, and ANROWS is listed on the Australian Competitive Grants Register as a Category 1 Grants program.
2017 core grants round
In 2017/2018, ANROWS confirmed 14 research projects with a total value of $2.2 million funded under our 2017-2020 core grants round. These projects are aligned with the priorities of the Third Action Plan and all of them include a focus on at least one of ANROWS’s priority populations: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women; Culturally and Linguistically Diverse women; older women; women with disability; women who are, or have been, incarcerated; lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and intersex women; and women who live in rural and remote areas.
Perpetrator interventions research
The grant round for the ANROWS Perpetrator Interventions Research Stream was launched in 2016 and is funded by the Commonwealth Government to support states and territories to implement the National Outcome Standards for Perpetrator Interventions (NOSPI). This stream comprises 13 projects with a total value of $1.8 million.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander research
The grant round for the ANROWS Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Research Stream was launched in 2017 in support of the National Plan Outcome 3 that Indigenous communities are strengthened. It includes projects under our Core grants and Perpetrator Interventions Research Stream.
