Djama Mirri Mala Program


A partnership was established with MEP (Miwatj Employment and Participation) in 2017 to create an employment pathway for Yolngu who want to move into full time employment. The program prepares participants for mainstream work environments so that they can use MEP activities as training for real jobs. Participants can transition into full time employment at their own pace through labour hire placements or paid work placements at N.E.A.L. Local businesses who can hire participants to fill short term labour shortages or as a trial before committing to full time employment. This program has taken the risk and cost away from local businesses who engage Yolngu employees. The success of the program is due to the cooperation between local organisations and Government.
