The grants will support Traditional Owners in asserting their cultural values, rights, and obligations in the management of the marine and coastal environment.

The 50,000 grant for their Northern Bellarine Climate Change Coastal Adaptation Plan to assess the vulnerability of public assets to climate change and prepare a plan for how these should be best adapted to respond.
