What We Do

Counteracting Racism

Racism is a constant in the lives of Indigenous Australians and it has effects across a number of social indicators.

Education

Access to a good education is one of the greatest means of creating parity and positive outcomes for all Australians

Health

The physical and mental health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders is generally well behind that of Australia’s non-Indigenous population.

Employment

Employment allows people to live a fuller life and contributes to raising the socioeconomic standards of a person and a community.

Cultural Understanding

There is a need to tailor specific programs to the needs of Indigenous communities where culture is used as a strength.
