Tender Details
Tender Description
Cancer Australia is inviting partnerships between cancer services and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community controlled organisations to apply for funding under the Partnerships for culturally safe cancer care grant program.
Addressing equity and cultural safety issues in mainstream health services where specialist cancer care is delivered will support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to access high quality treatment and experience better cancer outcomes.
The grant program aims to support implementation of innovative approaches to accelerate the delivery of culturally safe, accessible, and responsive cancer care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
Up to $16,875,000 is available over the three-year funding period from 2024-2027, with up to $1 million available for each partnership.
The grant program aligns with priority actions in the Australian Cancer Plan and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Cancer Plan to strengthen cultural safety in mainstream cancer services and improving equity through partnerships and co-design between cancer services and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander-led organisations.
