Search Grants & Funding

COMPACT supports partnerships and collaboration between community, non-government, youth, sports, arts/media, educational, industry and other organisations by providing grant funding for innovative, evidence-based community projects.

The proven COMPACT Program recognises that socially cohesive communities are more resilient communities in the face of adversity and crisis. Whether dealing with bushfires, floods, terrorism, a global pandemic or overseas conflicts, more connected communities are more resilient to, and recover more quickly from, adversity.

Successful applications will ideally bring together partners or consortia with the demonstrated experience, expertise and capacity to engage and effect real positive change in young people (aged between 12-30), families and communities within a community resilience and conflict resolution frame.

Eligible organisations can apply for funding between $100,000 to $200,000 per year for two to four years.
