Council has adopted the Social Equity Framework 2022-25, which aims to empower and support all people in the City of Greater Geelong’s diverse community.

Aligning to the community’s 30-year clever and creative vision and a key deliverable of Our Community Plan 2021-2025, the framework aims to ensure fair and equitable access to all the City’s services and facilities, regardless of gender, age, background, and ability.

Implementation of the framework will be funded through existing operational budgets and will be used to guide the City’s service and program delivery.

The Social Equity Framework has been informed by the City’s Social Equity Principles 2017 and has been developed in consultation with councillors, City staff, advisory committees, partners and community members.

Thank you to everyone who contributed their views through community engagement on this framework.
