The CANA Small Grants Program builds the capacity of the Australian Climate Movement to achieve their vision of a just world with a safe climate where people and nature thrive.

They fund grassroots organisations and projects that have an impactful strategy for campaigning, advocacy or organising to rapidly reduce climate pollution and advance climate justice. As well as projects that strengthen the capacity of the Australian climate movement in building a larger and more diverse base of people and communities taking action on climate change.

Priorities include:

• Climate Justice
• Political leadership
• Global responsibility
• Energy solutions
• Nature protection
