What Australian Aboriginal people really want ?

From women entrepreneurs to Aussie battlers trying to get a break. This is an insight into remote Aboriginal communities and their battle to survive. We have heard the stories and seen the data about the dismal employment opportunities for Aboriginal people in remote communities. The fact is, it is difficult for most people in remote communities to find consistent work. In this episode, we meet the battlers who demonstrating incredible resilience, as well as the entrepreneurs who are turning Aboriginal knowledge into income and in turn creating opportunities for many Australians and communities.

This is part of a recent study on the wellbeing of Aboriginal people titled the Interplay Project by Prof Sheree Cairney. It is Part 2 of a three-part documentary series CULTURE, WORK, LEARNING-WELLBEING produced by Geonewmedia for the Interplay Project and the research Institute NINTI. It is an example of how short documentaries can be used to share real stories from the research findings and engage the wider community and decision makers.
