Regional Connectivity Program—draft grant opportunity guidelines

We are seeking feedback on the draft guidelines for the Regional Connectivity Program, a $53 million grants program to improve digital connectivity in regional and rural Australia.

The Regional Connectivity Program will deliver ‘place based’, targeted investment to provide economic opportunities and enable full participation in the digital economy for regional communities and businesses.

The draft guidelines for the program outline the eligibility criteria for both participants and activities under the program, as well as the assessment criteria and application process for prospective projects. We welcome feedback on any aspects of the draft guidelines to ensure they meet the program’s objectives.
