Scholarships
As we shift from coal to clean energy local people must be included. We need to support training and job pathways so locals can be job ready for renewables.
Hi Neighbour is helping locals up-skill for clean energy careers. Each round focuses on crucial clean energy jobs and vital demographics in our community. For each round have a total of $20,000 financial support to offer alongside priceless mentoring, industry introductions and Hi Neighbour support.
