Our Development & Operations Grants support community media organisations to be healthy, resilient and robust. In turn this helps to create a stronger society based on greater participation, engagement and cohesion.
Consideration of Development & Operations Grants is the responsibility of the Development & Operations Grants Advisory Committee (DOGAC). You will receive advice by email about the outcome of your application in June 2025.
The links below include Word document versions of the application form and guidelines that you can use to prepare your application offline, as well other helpful information.
We strongly encourage you to discuss your project with one of our Grants Support Team members before submitting your application. They can provide advice on the types of projects funded in this Program, what information you should include in your application and feedback on your application prior to submission.
