Community Access Network Infrastructure Grants

The Community Access Network (CAN) was created to link community radio and television stations throughout metropolitan, rural and remote Australia via the Internet. Funds are available to purchase a computer, connect to an ISP and provide basic training for community broadcasters to access online community broadcasting resources.

Applications are accepted throughout the year.

Consideration of CAN Infrastructure grants is the responsibility of the Online Grants Advisory Committee.
