About the Partnerships Against Pests grants program
Agriculture Victoria is administering the Partnerships Against Pests grants program to improve the capacity of land managers to manage established weeds and pest animals on their land.
Generally, established weeds are those that are listed as regionally controlled or regionally prohibited under the Catchment and Land Protection Act 1994. Established pest animals are those listed under the Act.This grants program aims to ensure that people most affected by the problem of established weeds and pest animals are central in the process of defining the problem and co-creating strategies and new community-based projects to build community capacity and support on-ground action.
Read more about the Partnerships Against Pests program and how we are supporting community led management of invasive plants and animals.
The grants will help community groups to deliver workshops, resources and community engagement initiatives, build community capacity, and promote collaboration between neighbours and communities.
