Funding Rounds
Nuku Ora’s Tū Manawa funding will be distributed in a series of funding rounds over the next 12 months.
The Tū Manawa ‘Open Fund’ and ‘Smaller Project Fund’ have the same purpose, priority groups, and requirements. The difference between the two are how the respective funding streams are administered.
Please note that your application must be for a programme or project for up to 12 months (i.e. you cannot apply for costs past a 12-month delivery period).
