The Augusta Zadow Scholarships award two scholarships per year of up to $10,000 for projects that aim to encourage initiatives that improve occupational health and safety outcomes by, or for the benefit of, women in South Australia.
In 1895, Augusta Zadow became the first female Inspector of Factories in South Australia. She played a crucial role in securing better conditions for workers in factories, particularly women and children. Many of the working conditions we now take for granted are due to the efforts of Augusta Zadow.
The deadline for applications is 31 August 2007.
Scholarships have previously been awarded to projects about domestic violence, bullying and manual handling.
