Five-Year Organisational Vision and Strategy: 2021-2026

As we marked our sixth anniversary, we launched our 5-Year Organisational Vision and Strategy (2021–2026), outlining our priorities, activities, outcomes, values, and ways of working. This strategy provided a roadmap toward a world where diversity is celebrated, all people are respected, and power and resources are shared equally.

Over the five years, we aimed to:

  • Strengthen the prevention of violence against women and girls through ethical, participatory research

  • Expand evidence-based, feminist-informed strategies to advance gender equality

  • Inspire global feminist conversations and ignite social change

  • Nurture stronger, more inclusive organisations, leaders, and movements

  • Build a thriving team and impactful feminist organisation

Years in the making, the strategy was shaped with the guidance of peers and colleagues globally, acknowledging that meaningful change happens collectively, within a vast ecosystem of courageous activists and like-minded organisations.

Our work focused across five broad strategies: Research & Evaluation, Policy & Advocacy, Creative Communications, Learning & Transformation, and Organisational Sustainability & Staff Well-being. This approach addressed critical challenges in the field, including limited evidence of what works, under-resourced communications, gaps in diverse feminist leadership, and outdated learning systems.

Despite global crises—from a pandemic to racial justice reckonings and the climate emergency—the strategy provided inventive, evidence-based solutions to reduce violence against women and girls, strengthen respectful relationships, and support thriving, diverse feminist movements.

Equality Institute was founded in Naarm (Melbourne, Australia) on Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Country. We pay our respects to the Traditional Owners of this land and waterways, the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people, as well as their elders, past and present. We extend this respect to all Indigenous peoples of this continent and its adjacent lands, recognising their cultures as the oldest continuous living cultures in human history.
