Community Engagement

Are you keen to inspire environmental sustainability in the Wheatbelt? Do you have an idea for how to demonstrate and encourage efficient resource use? Then Wheatbelt NRM’s Sustainable Communities Grants might be just for you!

We’re looking for innovative projects to support that engage the local Wheatbelt community in SUSTAINABILITY, across three categories:

Trial & Demonstrate – for demonstrating how communities can become efficient in the use of Water, Energy and Waste resources. Projects need to be trialled and/or demonstrated at the 2018 Sustainable Wheatbelt Forum. Applicants can apply for up to $20,000.

Improve & Inspire – for improving the Water, Energy and Waste efficiency of local households, community organisations, local shires, schools and businesses. Applicants can apply for up to $8,000.

Participate – for encouraging household participation in sustainable living practices and that promote efficiency in the use of Water, Energy and Waste resources. Applicants can apply for up to $2,000.

So, get your thinking caps on and brainstorm how you can make a difference in your own backyard!
