Up to $4million dollars is available in the first round.
Communities for Nature grants are for local community groups and organisations looking to improve their natural environment and conserve local biodiversity values.
The program seeks to:
1. support practical community action to deliver measurable environmental outcomes
2. support community groups and volunteers undertaking works of primarily an environmental nature;
and
3. support communities with relevant and timely information to assess priorities at the local level to determine the best returns in undertaking on-ground works.
This year, two streams of funding are being offered; small grants of up to $10,000 and large grants for $10,000 to $150,000.
The Department of Sustainability and Environment is implementing this Victorian Government program.
