We win when WE WORK TOGETHER
Celebrate 1000 Fellows with us by contributing to the Progress Scholarship Fund. Your support can transform the skills of Australian change leaders.
Upskilling in best practice campaign strategy, community organising, message development, corporate campaigning, First Nations justice, media engagement, digital campaigning and more, the Progress Fellowship equips campaigners, organisers and changemakers from across civil society with the leadership skills, cross-sector connections, and proven tools to advocate for a more inclusive, diverse and fairer world.
Thanks to the generous support of our donors, we offer scholarships to lived experience advocates from grassroots organisations and movements to join cutting edge training that boosts their skills, connections and courage to win lasting change.
By backing the skill development of Australian change leaders, your support has a powerful ripple effect that flows into leading social and environmental justice movements; strengthening the influence of their advocacy efforts, and contributing to a more capable and resilient democracy.
Donate to the Progress Scholarship Fund today, and invest in the capacity of Australia's most powerful change leaders, helping them to advocate and win on the biggest issues of our time.
Australian Progress is a nationally registered charity and all donations of $2 and over are tax-deductible in Australia.

What is the 1,000 Fellows milestone?
In 2026, after 14 years, 46 cohorts and engagement with advocates from 400+ organisations and movements, we are so excited to share that we have officially passed an extraordinary milestone of training 1,000+ fellows through our flagship 5 month Progress Fellowship.
Our Fellowship alum have collectively won 70+ policy changes generating over $1billion in positive impact for communities. They have organised, built power and contributed to the most monumental wins across Australian civil society over the last decade.
To every fellow who has shown up with curiosity and courage. To the guest speakers who have generously shared their time and wisdom. To the facilitators who’ve guided each cohort with generosity. And to our wider Australian Progress community of donors and key supporters who have invested in the Progress Fellowship over the past 13 years. We thank you for helping us build something much bigger than a training program. Thanks to you, civil society is more powerful, connected and courageous, ready to campaign and win progressive social change.
Donate to our scholarship fund today to ensure exceptionally talented community leaders and movement builders with lived experience, are able access current edge leadership and development opportunities.
