DEADLINE: National Science Week 2024 Grants
22 April @ 7:00 am - 8:00 am AWST
National Science Week is Australia’s largest celebration of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). This year it will take place from Saturday 10 August – Sunday 18 August 2024.
Small Grants of up to $4,000 and Mit-tier Grants of up to $10,000 to support new activities and projects which can engage the community with STEM.
Both grants are open to regional and metropolitan applicants. It is highly desirable that funded activities and projects work with, promote, or engage historically under-represented groups in STEM. Further grant criteria are outlined in the respective Grant Guidelines.
If you are looking for support in developing an activity or project, get in touch with one of our WACC committee members who are available to support you.

Mid-tier Grants
Mid-tier grants of up to $10,000 (or up to $15,000 for exceptional events) are available to support major projects taking place across WA for National Science Week. Projects must demonstrate that they can connect the community with STEM.
Small Grants
Small Grants are available to support all other activities during National Science Week which are not major projects. To be eligible, activities must take place anytime in August 2024. It is still preferred that grant recipients deliver their activity as close to National Science Week as practical.
