RDA NT helps NT organisations identify and secure funding for their projects.
We will endeavour to find both government and non-government funding opportunities, as well as facilitating local partnerships and finding other strategies, to leverage support for regional development initiatives. When our resources allow, RDA NT also assists regional stakeholders with the development of project proposals and funding applications. No other service provider offers similar hands-on support across the spectrum of regional organisations, projects and funding opportunities.
In particular RDA NT supports the delivery of the Growing Regions Program, previously the Building Better Regions Fund. This Australian Government program provides funding for infrastructure projects and community investment that will create jobs, drive economic growth and build stronger regional communities into the future.
For more information about the Growing Regions Program visit: https://www.infrastructure.gov.au/territories-regions-cities/regional-australia/regional-and-community-programs/growing-regions-program
