Multicultural grants

The Inner West Council multicultural grant stream provides funding for projects that contribute to wellbeing for multicultural communities. Projects that support new and established migrant communities to stay connected and projects that promote intercultural connection are particularly encouraged.

The objectives of the multicultural grant program are to:

• Encourage community collaborations and partnerships between and across communities

• Build on community strengths and capabilities

• Encourage participation and community connections.

Council accepts a broad range of projects, however, see below for ideas to inspire you.

Previous project examples include:

• A forum or activity that raises awareness of a certain issue that impacts community members

• Intercultural connections, such as intercultural sports programs, a music event or art projects

• Education sessions that provide support and guidance on an issue that is affecting community members

• Social gatherings that encourage connection and understanding

• An event or activity to celebrate an important date or milestone.
