Aboriginal Languages Growth Program

Closing: 9 March, 2025


The Aboriginal Languages Growth Program empowers Aboriginal communities to sustain and grow their languages. By providing grants of $30,000 to $90,000, it supports Aboriginal organisations, groups, and individuals in carrying out meaningful language projects that foster deep transmission and have a lasting community impact. The program aims to:

  • Promote the deeper transmission of Aboriginal languages.
  • Help communities implement their Language Plans.
  • Increase awareness, use, and appreciation of NSW Aboriginal languages through research and resources.
  • Build long-term language resilience through continued practice and education.
  • Enable communities to lead and strengthen the growth and nurturing of Aboriginal languages sustainably.

Funding is available for initiatives that align with these objectives.

Our mission is to nurture a prosperous economy by supporting local business and investment attraction.
