Capacity Building & Sector Strengthening Grants
Aboriginal Peak Organisations Northern Territory — APO NT
The Capacity Building and Sector Strengthening Grants Program is now live!
The Grants Program aims to strengthen the capability, governance, sustainability and transition readiness of Aboriginal community controlled organisations (ACCOs) across the Northern Territory.
The Aboriginal Peak Organisations of the Northern Territory (APO NT) is committed to self-determination for Aboriginal Communities. This includes supporting Aboriginal community controlled organisations to deliver services which meet the aspirations of their communities.
About the Grants
Aboriginal community controlled organisations, through effective and genuine community control, can provide high-quality services which meet the aspirations of the local community and are culturally safe.
Through the Capacity Building and Sector Strengthening Grants, APO NT will support the capacity building and strengthening of Aboriginal community controlled organisations (ACCOs) to provide critical services for Aboriginal people in remote NT communities.
