COALAR Special Grant Round 2020-2021

Overview

The Council on Latin America (COALAR) grant round is part of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade's international relations ongoing grants project, subject to annual budget appropriation. The objectives of the program are to promote people-to-people links and a contemporary and positive image of Australia and support of the Australian government's international policy goals. COALAR will conduct a Special Grant Round for 2020-2021 for projects that can be conducted between 1 April and 30 September 2021 (NB: projects must commence no later than 30 June 2021). The Special Grant Round replaces the general 20201-2021 grant round postponed earlier in the year in response to the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic.  The theme of COALAR's round is Economic Recovery as set out in the attached Additional Guidance document. Applications will need to show how the proposed project can be conducted through use of digital technology; meet at least one of the priorities listed on the Additional Guidance note; and comply with COVID-19 safety requirements.
