| Media Release - 19 May 2001 |
The State Government of Victoria invites applications from local councils, statewide agencies, peak bodies, government agencies and other networks for My Connected Community funding to establish online communities amongst their members and the wider population.
My Connected Community is part of the Victorian Government's Connecting Victoria strategy to ensure that the benefits of online technologies are shared across the entire Victorian community. The key objective of this $3.5 million program is to rapidly stimulate the development of online communities of interest within Victoria.
Applications are encouraged from organisations able to provide support and training to those hardest to reach including people from non-English speaking backgrounds, Indigenous communities, people with disabilities and low income earners.
Two levels of funding are available under the program: Level 2 ($20,000) and Level 3 ($50,000). All successful projects will be funded for 2 years.
For further information and application forms and guidelines, please contact VICNET on 1800 629 835 or 8664 7001 during business hours or visit the Project Partners section of this my connected community Website.
Closing date for applications is 5.00pm, Friday 15 June 2001
