Small Grants
Applications for alumni small grants round 11 is now open!
Alumni Small Grant Fund is provided to support alumni to undertake research, community development, or leadership/professional development so that the alumni can better contribute to Timor-Leste’s development and/or develop stronger links between Australia and Timor-Leste.
Please contact Alumni Secretariat Coordinator via email alumni@australiaawardstl.org or phone call at 78103795 for any question regarding the small grant application.
The small grant fund provides a unique opportunity for alumni to use their skills and experience in practical ways to support Timor-Leste’s development. From projects of capacity building on media to government officials, library rehabilitation in Ermera, permaculture in Hera to duck farming expansion support in Liquiça and Covalima, alumni have used small grants to progress these initiatives and bring positive impact across communities in Timor-Leste.
This year, two grants will be awarded, and each award will be a maximum of USD 5,000 per grant
- One small grant will be awarded to a proposal submitted by alumni as individual/group.
- One small grant will be awarded to a proposal implementation through a Timorese organisation (NGOs and Civil Society) in collaboration with alumni.
