The Australian Flora Foundation invites applications for funding of research projects from individual researchers and research teams, to support original scientific studies on the biology and cultivation of Australian plants.
The Australian Flora Foundation was established in 1981 with the aim of fostering scientific research on the biology and cultivation of Australian plants. It aims to support research that will create improved understanding and greater awareness of the value of the Australian flora, leading to pathways for their conservation and utilisation.
Grants will be awarded for research projects to commence in early 2026, with funds available from December 2025.
The Foundation operates three grant programs:
1. Malcolm Reed Grants: to support substantial projects for 2 to 3 years, with budgets in the range
of $20,000 to $60,000, spread over the time period of the project.
2. Small Grants: to support smaller and exploratory projects for one to two years, with budgets in
the range of $5,000 to $20,000, spread over the time period of the project.
3. Ian and Janet McConachie Macadamia Conservation Grant: to support one project annually
for up to three years, with a budget of up to $ 20,000 per annum, focused on the ecology and
conservation of macadamias. This grant scheme is funded by the Macadamia Conservation
Trust, while the other two are funded by the Foundation.
*Applications may be lodged under one scheme only*
