Funding Schemes for Non-Government Organisations

AusAID NGO Cooperation Program (ANCP)
Funding to Developing Country NGOs
Cooperation Agreements

Funding Schemes for non-government organisations (NGOs) aim to provide or supplement funding for Australian NGOs to implement development, relief and rehabilitation activities in developing countries.

A program of NGO activity funding (NGO scheme) may be agreed between the Australian Government and a partner government as a suitable contribution to the aid program's strategy in that country. NGO funding schemes also contribute to the global reach of the Australian aid program.

There are a number of ways that NGOs can access funding from the Australian Government; these include the AusAID-NGO Cooperation Program and the Direct Aid Program and Small Activities Scheme which are available to developing country NGOs.
