Learn more about our criteria for assessing projects
Our initiatives must be cross-sectoral in nature and scalable across agriculture, fisheries and forestry.
We start by understanding the problem to be solved, who it is a problem for, and why?
AIA initiatives must be attractive to investors. We assess ideas on their potential to catalyse additional investment from the public or private sector.
We aim to deliver transformational versus incremental impact, through initiatives that are of national significance for Australian agriculture, fisheries and forestry.
