Supporting the Ukrainian Community

The program provides grants to member organisations of The Australian Federation of Ukrainian Organisations (at the time the grant round opened) undertaking critical work to welcome and support recent arrivals from Ukraine.

The program aims to strengthen whole of community engagement and capacity building. The successful organisations are supported through an organisational capacity-building program, as necessary and appropriate.

The program is administered by The Social Policy Group (SPG) on behalf of the Australian Government.
