The Minister for Environment announced the 2024-25 Riverbank Funding recipients on 24 October 2024. See a full list of successful funding recipients below.
It is anticipated the 2025-26 round will open in February 2025.
Grants funding process
Riverbank Grants Funding is a competitive process undertaken in two stages:
Stage One
Call for Expressions of Interest (EOIs). Project proposals which offer best value for money in addressing foreshore issues and achieving the desired outcomes for the river system will be selected. Funding for successful projects will be conditional at this stage.
Stage Two
Riverbank officers will work with successful applicants from Stage One to establish collaborative arrangements between parties. It is through the establishment of these arrangements that the final project details, including a project schedule, and detailed budget arrangements will be negotiated.
How to apply
The application period for the 2025-26 Riverbank Funding round is anticipated to open in February 2025.
