The Country Road Climate Fund


The Country Road Climate Fund is an annual climate impact grants program aimed at accelerating and incubating positive climate projects, programs, initiatives, products or organisations ('projects') across the Australian fashion industry. The Country Road Climate Fund is split into the Incubator Program and the Accelerator Program. Projects can apply to either (but not both) of these programs.

In October 2022, Country Road announced Australia's first fashion industry climate fund, pledging $1.5 million over three years. Grants will be allocated to projects aligned to the Country Road Climate Fund's objectives, with up to AU$500,000 allocated each year.

  • The indicative maximum grant amount under the Incubator Program is AU$30,000.

  • The indicative maximum grant amount under the Accelerator Program is AU$200,000.

Grant funding for 2023 submissions will be paid in quarterly instalments, commencing from July 2024. Payments are made on the basis that the recipient has met agreed Key Performance Indicators for the previous quarter.

The number and size of the grants will be subject to Country Road's discretion and will be reviewed on an annual basis.
