The With One Voice movement is about strengthening communities and inspiring
individuals to find their voice. We believe empowered individuals and supportive
communities are better placed to solve society’s big challenges including cross-cultural
integration, unemployment, mental illness, productivity, skills shortages, loneliness and
isolation, family fragmentation, homelessness and more.
With One Voice programs are set up and ran by local volunteers using the resources and
materials provided by Creativity Australia. By establishing a local community choir under
the auspices of Creativity Australia (as a registered charity) you hold a licence that enables
the choir to raise funds to support projects and initiatives at a local level.
It is anticipated that the types of community organisations that may wish to form a
community choir under the With One Voice program may include:
local schools (it’s a great community engagement and volunteering program!)
disability organisations
job seeker organisations
community based organisations such as the Lions Club, Rotary, Freemasons etc.
refugee groups / organisations
churches / religious groups
sports groups, such as footy clubs, tennis clubs, bowling clubs etc.

The deviantART Creative Grants Program is a pilot project designed to make modest
grants to artists upon application for projects related to making and displaying art.
The future of the Program will depend on its performance as a pilot project, thus there is no
assurance that the Program will continue for any period of time. Nonetheless, the intention
is to create on a quarterly basis a distribution of funds to a variety of applicants. The
amount of total funds to be distributed will be set in advance of each quarterly cycle and will
be announced quarterly at the time applications are solicited.
Funds that are not distributed in any given quarter would rollover to the next quarter and
would be included in the budget of funds for that new quarter. The number and size of
Grants will depend on the number of applications made in a quarter, the scope of those
applications and the decisions made by the Creative Grants Board on the basis of the
applications presented in any given quarter.

Movable cultural heritage includes objects that people create or collect and forms an important part of a nation's identity. These objects are known as cultural property and can be artistic, technological, historical or natural in origin.
There is increasing trade and exchange of cultural property between nations. This exchange can enhance international appreciation of cultural diversity, but it can also lead to the loss of significant aspects of a nation's cultural heritage.
Many countries have laws which regulate the export of cultural property. There is a wide range of cultural property protected including:
Indigenous art and artefacts Works of fine and decorative art Scientific and archaeological artefacts Fossils, meteorites and minerals Agricultural and industrial heritage Books, stamps and medals Historic materials

The Tradex Scheme allows an importer to gain an up-front exemption from Customs duty and GST on eligible imported goods that are intended for export. The goods may be exported in the same condition as imported, subjected to a process or treatment after importation, then exported or incorporated in other goods which are exported. Export may be carried out by the importer or a third party.
Tradex provides an alternative to the Customs Drawback Scheme which requires an up-front payment of Customs duty and GST and then the subsequent recovery of these taxes when the goods have been exported. The Tradex Scheme can, therefore, provide a significant cashflow benefit.
The goods must be exported within 12 months of importation, although approval can be sought to extend this period. _________________________________________________________________________
