Grants and Finance
Grant funding and finance opportunities
A key part of the IOT RDO's work is helping local businesses, community organisations and individuals identify funding and finance opportunities that can support projects, activities and ideas across the Indian Ocean Territories.
Commonwealth Territories Grant Finder powered by GrantGuru
The IOT RDO has partnered with Norfolk Island and Jervis Bay Territory to create a new Commonwealth Territories Grant Finder, powered by GrantGuru.
As Commonwealth-administered territories facing similar challenges in accessing grant funding, we've joined forces to make it easier to find funding opportunities and ensure you don't miss opportunities that could support your project or organisation.
The Grant Finder helps you identify grant opportunities to support projects and activities you are planning, developing or already delivering.
To use the Grant Finder, you’ll need to register. Registration only takes a couple of minutes and allows you to:
Save grants to your Favourites
Receive automated email alerts when new opportunities become available
The Commonwealth Territories Grant Finder enables you to search a wide range of funding opportunities for both businesses and community organisations.
You can also watch this short how-to video for an overview of how to use the platform.
