The Aboriginal Languages Growth Program aims to support Communities to grow and sustain Languages, by enabling Aboriginal Community Organisations, groups and individuals to continue to undertake practical and meaningful Language projects which involve the deep transmission of Languages and have a broader impact in Community.

The Aboriginal Languages Growth Program provides grants between $30,000 and $90,000 to support Aboriginal Community organisations, groups and sole traders to undertake practical and meaningful Language projects which involve the deep transmission of Aboriginal Languages and have a broader Community impact, to grow and sustain Languages.

The objective of the Aboriginal Languages Growth Program is to support:

• a focus on the deeper transmission of Aboriginal Languages,
• Aboriginal Communities to implement their Community Language Plans,
• the promotion, wider use, and appreciation of NSW Aboriginal Languages research, resources and study,
• build deeper, lasting and meaningful Language resilience through sustained practice and education, and
• enable Communities to sustainably lead and strengthen Aboriginal Language growth and nurturing. Funding can be used

The total amount of funding allocated to this program in 2025-26 is $2,000,000.
