Tips for Applicants
Applicants should emphasise community ownership and leadership, demonstrate alignment with regenerative and climate-resilient outcomes, and show how projects harness innovation and technology for scale. Strong partnerships with local communities in Timor-Leste and evidence of mutual respect and knowledge exchange would be viewed favorably.

Xpand Foundation values collaborative partnerships built on mutual understanding and respect. It prioritises community-led approaches, believing that those closest to the challenge are closest to the solution, and seeks innovative, regenerative solutions that create lasting change rather than traditional aid models.
