Tender Description

⁠⁠⁠Under the Fourth Action Plan of the National Plan to Reduce Violence Against Women and their Children 2010-2022, the eSafety Commissioner has been funded to create training and resources for frontline workers who support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women experiencing technology facilitated abuse as an extension of domestic and family violence. This is an integral part of the government’s commitments to provide support for violence-prevention strategies for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.

An important component of this work is the Dedicated Project Officer Grants Program. Grants will be made available to up to nine Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations (ACCOs) to enable the engagement of a project officer to work in consultation with eSafety in the development of frontline worker training and resources.

The invitation to apply for this targeted competitive grant opportunity will be made to selected ACCOs (identified through consultation with the NIAA) that operate in urban, regional and remote locations across Australia, and who specialise in domestic and family violence service provision or who are otherwise working with women in vulnerable circumstances.

The agencies who have been invited to apply for this grant opportunity are listed in the Dedicated Project Officer Grants Program Guidelines.

The DPOs thus engaged consult with eSafety in the development of a range of suitable online and offline training resources to support women and to build capacity within the community to address technology-facilitated abuse as an extension of domestic and family violence.

The objectives of the Dedicated Project Officer Grants Program are outlined in the Dedicated Project Officer Grants Program Guidelines.
