Creating positive change

The Inspiring Young Women’s Award, affectionately known as the Graces, will be presented for the first time in 2027. This new award shines a light on young Tasmanian women, including those with a trans or non‑binary experience, who show exceptional potential, initiative and achievement.

It celebrates young people who are creating positive change in their communities through their effort, passion and self‑motivation. Whether they are leading, advocating, creating or supporting others, these emerging leaders are making a real difference.

The stories of award recipients will be shared across Tasmania to recognise their impact and inspire other young people to step forward, contribute, and pursue their goals.
