Funding available for community conservation projects

Applications are invited for the next round of grants to support grassroots natural resource management projects.

The Community Stewardship Grants under the State Natural Resource Management Program assist the conservation of WA’s natural assets and  recognise the role of local communities in natural resource management.

The program supports community-led conservation initiatives that help protect and restore coastal, agricultural, pastoral, urban, bushland, river, estuarine and marine environments. It is open to a wide range of groups including community and volunteer organisations, industry bodies, local governments and schools.

A total of $7 million is available for local projects in 2025. Grants of up to $50,000 are available for short-term activities and up to $450,000 for longer-term projects. Applications close 12 noon Monday, 7 April 2025.
