The assessment panel comprised of both internal staff and community representatives with expertise in each field and made recommendations to receive funding.

The priority areas for grant funding in 2023/24 included protection of the natural environment, climate change mitigation and adaptation, reduction in resource consumption such as water, energy and waste generation as well as increasing sustainable behaviours in the community.
