Announcing our grants for legal projects to support a better justice system.
From 1 July, the Victoria Law Foundation will launch its 2021/22 grant program. Here is an overview so you can start planning.
Knowledge Grants
Knowledge Grants support community legal organisations to build data capability and research skills through investigation of a civil legal problem or data collection practices to better understand and respond to community need.
These grants aim to:
- develop a new understanding of the legal needs of Victorians through collection of data and information
- improve capability of the organisation to collect, analyse and use data and information
- share information with other organisations or agencies which results in a better understanding of the target group and ways to address need effectively.
Grant amount: up to $50,000
Open: 1 July 2021
Close: Monday 23 August 2021
Community Legal Grants
Community Legal Grants support projects which help the community navigate civil legal issues and the Victorian justice system.
These grants will fund one-off projects that address a legal issue for a specific community, such as development of a resource, or pilot projects that offer new approaches to delivering legal information or to trial a strategy and gain further insights.
Grant amount: up to $20,000
Open: 1 December 2021
Close: 15 March 2022

Grant amount: up to $5000 for legal projects and up to $2500 for Law Week events.
Applications can be made at any time subject to the availability of funds.
