Including the unique experiences of people from migrant and refugee backgrounds, people seeking asylum, and Australian South Sea Islander people, which may place them at increased risk of social isolation and loneliness.
Up to $50,000 is available for eligible organisations with innovative, community-led ideas for events, courses and professional development opportunities that improve loneliness, job readiness and community connection.
Applications close at 2:00pm on Monday, 22 April 2024.
