OUR ACTIVITIES • Developing radio and online on-demand content for Yolŋu people to understand the mainstream world and expand their knowledge so they can transform their own world, build their own solutions, and engage with wider mainstream education and services.

We would like to see this content and approach translated for use in other Aboriginal language regions. • Providing discovery education and training that builds on traditional knowledge which helps the Yolŋu community better understand the dominant culture and modern knowledge (focusing on a variety of subjects according to the questions and agenda of the communities we are working with.)
