Grant Description

The First Peoples Tourism Growth Program is a competitive Victorian Government initiative delivered by the Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions to support recognised Victorian First Peoples-led businesses operating, or planning to operate, in the visitor economy. Offering grants of up to $125,000 (exclusive of GST) per applicant, the program seeks to strengthen workforce capability, industry excellence and planning, cultural heritage stewardship and asset investment for sustainable tourism growth.
