Grants to First Nationsled organisations and communities
We fund advocacy to turn climate solutions into real-world change. That means changing the decisions that shape Australia’s future – government policy, corporate behaviour, and what communities have the power to protect and build.
Change is rarely the work of one organisation or campaign. What looks like a sudden breakthrough is often years of research, organising, legal action, storytelling and public pressure coming together.
So we don’t judge impact one grant at a time. We look at how the organisations we back shift decisions, build public support and strengthen the movement around them.
Some results are easy to see – a policy changed or a fossil fuel project stopped. Others are less visible, but just as important – stronger organisations, deeper relationships and more power to create the next breakthrough.
For us, the real measure of impact is not only what changes today, but what becomes possible next.

"Sea of Nations would not exist right now if it wasn’t for Groundswell’s grants. Every single dollar has helped bring people together to protect our homes, care for saltwater Country and keep our communities strong. It’s working,
and we are so, so grateful."

None of this happens without people willing to back it. Your 100% tax-deductible donation is pooled with hundreds of others to power bold, strategic climate action.

In a world of doomscrolling, the Groundswell Journal offers you something different – thoughtful stories about what’s working and a closer look at how change happens.

Wherever we are in this country, we are on Country.
We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as Traditional Custodians, and pay our respects to Elders past and present.
We honour their enduring care for Country and the First Nations leadership our climate future depends on.
