FDF Communities – Small Network Grants

Small Network Grants support not-for-profit organisations in remote, rural and regional Australia to develop and deliver local projects or initiatives that will broadly result in strengthened social capital, wellbeing and connectedness to prepare for and build social resilience to drought.

Part of the Future Drought Fund’s Communities Program, supported by the Australian Government, this program invests in the future by enabling agriculture-dependent communities to identify and act on their drought preparedness priorities at a grassroots level and in ways that best suit their communities.

The Small Network Grants will fund networks, community events, training initiatives, small scale community infrastructure, and development and learning initiatives that assist local people and communities to strengthen social capital and capability to prepare for future droughts.
