Girls from Oz (g-oz) is a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to enhancing education and employment pathways and the overall wellbeing of girls and young women in remote Australia.

Our programs use the reputable, evidence-based performing arts engagement model as developed by the Australian School of Performing Arts over the past 40 years to engage and re-engage individuals in their schooling.

g-oz programs utilise performing arts education as an early intervention tool to engage individuals in their school and community, assisting in the expansion of their skillset, passion, health, and horizons to ensure their future personal, educational and economic success.

"With the right support, resources and opportunities, the potential of the world’s more than 1.1 billion girls is limitless. And when girls lead, the impact is immediate and wide reaching: families, communities and economies are all stronger, our future brighter." - @unesco (2024)

Did you know that Girls from Oz is the official charity partner of the Australian Girls Choir?

g-oz exists because @ausschoolofperformingarts (ASPA) directors and members of the senior management team were driven to find ways to provide opportunities for girls in regional and remote Australia similar to those available to the @ausgirlschoir (AGC).

The last 17 years of g-oz would not have been possible without the committed support of ASPA, our principal partner; ASPA staff and alumni; and the dedicated group of AGC families who choose to uplift g-oz year after year in a myriad of ways.

Thank you, ASPA and AGC! 💚
