* Demonstrating innovative community engagement, including events and awareness-raising activities in the general community and opportunities for community members to be empowered through engagement in the leadership, design and delivery of activities.

* Providing advocacy and support to the community on identified priorities, applying asset-based community driven principles.

* Providing expert advice and leadership to the organisation in your area of practice, including best practice gender equity, prevention of gender-based violence and LGBTIQA+ inclusion.
