Move It! Program Overview
Wednesday 5th July 2006

The Move It! Making Communities Active Program provides financial assistance to sport, active recreation and physical activity organisations for projects and initiatives that target inactive people in South Australia.

The health benefits of being active are well known, yet nearly half of the South Australian population are not sufficiently active. This program invites the sport, active recreation and physical activity industry to develop projects and initiatives to address this issue.

Consideration will be given to those projects or initiatives that aim to get more people more active more often by:

• Increased participation in sport, active recreation and physical activity

• Addressing the barriers to participation in sport, active recreation and physical activity

• Developing sustainable partnerships with other stakeholders, and

• Increasing capacity within the sport, active recreation and physical activity sector to deliver programs and services

Applicants can apply for funding up to $50,000 per year. Funding for an initiative can be approved for up to 3 years.
