Inspiring Australia Tasmania Grant Round Opens

Do you have a science engagement activity or program that you would love to run for the Tasmanian community? If so, get your application in now for funding!

This year, Inspiring Australia Tasmania is offering grants under two streams:

  • Tasmanian National Science Week Grants
    National Science Week, held from 10 to 18 August 2025 aims to raise the profile and increase public awareness of the importance of science, technology, and innovation in our society. 

    This grant program is available to support the delivery of public National Science Week events and activities held between 2-24 August 2025.

  • Tasmanian Community STEM GrantsThis program aims to build capacity, programs, initiatives, and activities that raise the profile and provide engagement in STEM with a focus on groups historically under-represented in STEM. 

    This grant program is available to fund activities, where these are delivered outside of the National Science Week period (2-24 August 2025).

For each stream, two levels of grants are available:  

  1. Small program grants: up to $4000 
  2. Large program grants: between $4000-8000 

We are looking for great ideas for engaging and innovative STEM programs or initiatives that build a connection to the science.

Applications close Wednesday, 26 March 2025.
