FRRR ABC Heywire Youth Innovation Grants

2/6/2013

 
FRRR and Heywire are collaborating to help communities put into action the great ideas generated by the 32 young Australians who attended the 2013 Heywire Regional Youth Summit. ABC Radio’s Heywire Regional Youth Summit has been held annually in Canberra since 1998. The summit is open to people aged 16-22, living in regional or rural Australia, and designed to involve young people in a national conversation.

For the first time, FRRR is providing up to $70,000 to assist not-for-profit organisations in regional Australian communities ‘adopt’ and pilot one of seven Heywire project ideas.
  1. Farmers’ Future - Valuing Food Producers
  2. Cutting the Red Tape - Building Vibrant Regional Communities for Young People
  3. The Green Room - Mental Health
  4. Getting the Balance Right Media - Representation of Youth
  5. Breaking Down the Door - Acceptance of LGBT Communities
  6. Keys Please - Drink Driving
  7. Fresh Faced Friday - Body Image

Seven communities will each receive up to $10,000 to pilot one Heywire project idea in their community. Applications that tap into the strengths of young people and adapt the project to their own local situation are encouraged.

Applications are open from 1 May 2013 and close 7 June 2013. Please make sure you read the Heywire booklet and grant guidelines before beginning your application.  We strongly recommend you look at the Heywire website to see more information on the project idea your community is thinking about adopting.
