Acknowledging NEMA funding and support
Organisations receiving NEMA funding must ensure that NEMA’s contribution is appropriately acknowledged in relevant materials and activities.
Publications and materials
Funding recipients must, wherever possible, include a clear acknowledgement of NEMA’s support in a prominent position and in an appropriate form when publishing or producing any material related to the funded project.
Acknowledgements should:
- identify NEMA as the funding body
- include the relevant project name or identifier where the output is a publication.
Media and public engagement
Similar efforts should be made to acknowledge NEMA’s support when participating in television or radio programmes, or being interviewed by print or online media.
Important note and acknowledgement examples
When publicising NEMA’s funding support, ensure that the acknowledgement does not imply that views or messages expressed are those of the Australian Government or NEMA, unless NEMA has formally endorsed them.
Sometimes the exact acknowledgement wording required will be detailed in the funding agreement. If it is not, examples of appropriate acknowledgements are below.
Full acknowledgement:
“This project/event/product/publication is supported by the Australian Government’s National Emergency Management Agency through the Disaster Ready Fund.”
Short form (where space is limited):
“Supported by the Australian Government’s National Emergency Management Agency.”
