The Australian Government will help support the country’s most significant natural, Indigenous and historic heritage sites through a new grant funding round, now open for applications.
Australian Heritage Grants are made available on an annual basis by the Australian Government to protect, maintain and increase recognition of properties on the ³Ô¹ÏÍøÕ¾ Heritage List.
This round will see $5.3 million made available to support projects that protect Australia’s unique and precious heritage.
Examples of projects from previous rounds include restoration of the Great Melbourne Telescope in Melbourne’s Domain Parkland and Memorial Precinct, a new interpretive display at Cairns Aquarium to promote heritage values of the Great Barrier Reef, and work on the Shine Dome (now the home to the Australian Academy of Science) in Canberra.
Applications for the 2022-23 grant round are open until 7 November 2022.
Grants range from $25,000 to $400,000.
