Support Schemes
Community Grants Scheme
The Community Grants Scheme (CGS) has been established to support local, community-scale projects that improve the management of waste in Western Australia.
Strategic Waste Initiatives Scheme
The Strategic Waste Initiatives Scheme (SWIS) is aimed at providing support and encouragement to business and industry, local government, community groups and individuals in tackling priority waste issues.
Strategic Partners
Strategic partnerships are formal alliances between the Waste Authority and key stakeholders to enable consolidated engagement and/or the building of mutual long-term goals and commitments to waste avoidance and resource recovery. The Authority will seek strategic partners who are best placed to assist with advancing the Waste Avoidance and Resource Recovery Act 2007 (WARR Act) objects and the Authority’s strategic priorities as outlined in the Waste Strategy.
Sponsorship
A limited number of sponsorship proposals may be supported from a non-profit organisation. Submissions are assessed initially by the Manager, Strategic Partnerships, Office of the Waste Authority and then considered by the Waste Authority. The appropriate
pro forma for submissions is located here. All applicants should acquaint themselves with the sponsorship policy, prior to submitting a request.
