This grant is part of the Government’s
Modernised Multicultural Grant Program.
The core purpose of the Multicultural Grassroots Initiatives grants program is to enhance the capacity of multicultural community-led grassroots organisations. This helps to foster a cohesive multicultural Australia by:
- increasing understanding of racial, religious and cultural diversity
- fostering integration through an increase in social participation by culturally and linguistically diverse Australians
- fostering a sense of community and belonging among culturally and linguistically diverse communities.
