Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex, Queer, Asexual+ (LGBTIQA+) Grants Program
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex, Queer Asexual + (LGBTIQA+) Grants Program 2024
Status: CLOSED
Applications closed at 2:00 pm on Friday, 22 March 2024. Late applications will not be accepted.
It is intended that applicants be notified of the outcome of their application by end of May 2024.
Overview
The Tasmanian Government, as part of its 2021 election commitments, allocated $70,000 to the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex, Queer Asexual + (LGBTIQA+) Grants Program (the Program).
Grants provided through the Program will assist community organisations, tertiary institutions and Local Government to:
- increase the number of Tasmanians who are accepting of diversity;
- improve resilience and capacity in the LGBTIQA+ community;
- foster inclusion, respect and dignity for LGBTIQA+ Tasmanians; and
- enhance access to services and increase participation for LGBTIQA+ Tasmanians.
For 2024, $60,000 of funding will be administered through the Department of Premier and Cabinet. In recognition of the important work that individuals/communities undertake at grassroots levels, the Government has entered an arrangement with Working it Out to administer the remaining $10,000, through a small community grants program. For more information on this grants program please refer to https://www.workingitout.org.au.
In consultation with the LGBTIQA+ Whole of Government Reference Group, the 2024 government-administered Grants Program has been divided into two areas:
- priority project/s (category 1); and
- general project/s (category 2).
Eligible applicants may apply for either or both the priority stream and general stream, and for funding between $1,000 to $30,000 in each area.
