Can community groups such as landcare and coastcare apply for Caring for our Country funds?
Yes, community groups and networks such as Indigenous, landcare and coastcare groups are supported under Caring for our Country. The amount of funding available for these groups will depend on the size of the project and the extent to which a proposal contributes to achieving targets outlined in the business plan. For small-scale projects, preference will be given to proposals seeking funding of $20 000 to $100 000 per year. Community groups and networks seeking smaller amounts are encouraged to contact their local regional natural resource management organisation to discuss local grant options or to identify other groups with whom they could form partnerships to submit a proposal. Community groups and networks focused on coastal rehabilitation, restoration, protection and conservation works can undertake projects that contribute directly to achieving the Caring for our Country Community Coastcare targets. Preference will be given to projects seeking funding of $20 000 to $50 000. Coas
