The program supports youth leadership, innovation, and practical solutions that benefit people and the planet.

Through the Youth Climate Action Fund Grant program, the City will provide between $1,500 and $7,000 (excluding GST) for eligible climate action projects led by young people aged 15 - 24 and supported by organisations that work with young people.

What we will fund: 

• events and workshop costs including venue hire and basic catering;
• marketing and promotional materials including printing and photography;
• training and mentor fees for youth-focused workshops and skills development;
• project supplies such as equipment, tools, materials and technology;
• permit or approval fees required to deliver the project; and
• Auspice fees to a maximum of 10 percent of the project cost.

• offer a project within the City's local government area or a project that will result in a direct impact on the City
• be a legally constituted entity with an Australian Business Number (ABN) and have a bank account in the organisations name;
• be recognised as a not-for-profit or charitable organisation (ACNC) under Australian laws;
• have appropriate insurances where required, as outlined under the City's Activity Approvals or other relevant policies and procedures;
• have submitted the application prior to the project commencement date with sufficient time to enable consideration by the City;
• demonstrate financial viability without the City's funding (an individual event or project may not be viable without the City's support, however the organisation must be);
• the organisation has applied for no more than three different projects led by young people within this funding period; and
• the project is led by young people aged 15-24 and supported by organisations that work with young people.
