Indigenous Languages and Arts - Open Grant Round 2021

Overview

The overarching outcome of the ILA Program is to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to express, preserve and maintain their cultures through Indigenous languages and arts activities. Grant funding allocated through the ILA Program supports three key outcomes: • the empowerment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to preserve and teach their culture through languages and arts • a strong sense of cultural identity and wellbeing in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, which contributes to sustainable and strong communities • celebration and increased recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander languages and arts in the wider Australian community
