Our ongoing commitment to gender equity
We’re focused on fostering a workplace culture that promotes a deep sense of belonging and engagement and is reflective of the rich diversity of the communities in which our game is played.
Guided by our AFL Workforce Gender Equity Action Plan 2025 – 2027, our vision is to achieve true gender equity and inclusion at the AFL.
The four pillars of our plan that bring this to life are:
- Culture of Belonging: The culture of the AFL is one in which difference is truly valued, and women and men feel equally engaged, respected and supported.
- Gender Balance: Equal representation and opportunities for women and men at the AFL to realise their full potential.
- Visibility and Connection: Women and men equally visible, recognised and connected within and outside of the AFL. The AFL is a leading
employer in Australia. - Inclusive Practices: Inclusive systems, processes, policies and structures in place that address barriers to gender equity.
Whilst we have made significant progress, there is still unfinished business. We have momentum, strong leadership commitment, and will pursue even greater aspirations.
