About the foundation
The Children's Week Grants Program is administered by the Victorian Government to support community-led activities that celebrate and promote the rights and wellbeing of children during Children's Week. While not an arts organization per se, the program frequently funds creative projects—from storytelling and performance to visual arts workshops—that engage young people and their communities. Its founding ethos is rooted in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, emphasizing participation, protection, and provision. The program aims to make Children's Week a meaningful, inclusive event across Victoria by resourcing local initiatives that amplify children's voices.
