Deadline: 3-Oct-22
The Indigenous Knowledge Institute (IKI) invites proposals for the Community Engagement Grants to support academics with a new research idea to test, explore, and develop it in partnership with members of Indigenous communities.
The Community Engagement Grants will be awarded to researchers/research teams who are building equitable partnerships with Indigenous communities at a grassroots level.
The funding will enable the researcher to develop interdisciplinary and community-engaged networks within and external to the University. The scheme aims to support research ideas that may lead to a proposal for future rounds of the IKI’s Seed Funding program.

The IKI is one of the Melbourne Interdisciplinary Research Institutes aiming to promote research linkages and collaboration across the University and play a lead role in articulating University research to external audiences.
