RNLD awarded 3 year MILR grant
On 23 June 2011, Australia's Minister for the Arts, Simon Crean MP, announced $14.4 million in funding for Indigenous language programs across Australia in 2011-12 under the Maintenance of Indigenous Languages and Records grant scheme. A total of 67 projects was funded this year, including 4 triennial projects. The list of successful applicants can be downloaded from the link above.
RNLD is very pleased to share the news that we have been awarded a three year grant at a substantially increased level of funding. This will permit significant expansion nationally of our training and resource sharing activities. We look forward to continuing to work with communities, Indigenous organisations, and all of our members through the triennium.
Warmest congratulations to all grantees. It is exciting to see such a wonderful range of work taking place to support Indigenous languages.
best wishes,
Margaret
