First Peoples Tourism Growth Program

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. Aligned with the Yuma Yirramboi Strategy and Experience Victoria 2033, it empowers First Peoples entrepreneurs, protects Indigenous Cultural and Intellectual Property and fosters long-term cultural tourism development across regional Victoria.
