The MISP offers an opportunity for the government to co-invest in multicultural community infrastructure projects. Matched funding demonstrates your organisation’s commitment to completing the project.
All organisations must provide evidence of their capacity to meet the matched funding requirement for the project. Organisations that meet one or more of the priority groups will have reduced matched funding requirements.
See Organisations cash contribution(opens in a new window) under Mandatory Documents for accepted evidence of matched funding.
If you are unsure if your organisation needs to provide matched funding, please email the Multicultural Affairs Infrastructure Team multicultural.infrastructure@dpc.vic.gov.au(opens in a new window).
