Annie Morrison Tennant Creek “We don’t know what is going to happen to the water, if it will become salty. People need water. Our communities are close to Singleton, so we can get affected by the water if it’s bad. We worry about it. How are they going to supply water to our communities? Is the government going to give us funding for better water? We need water first, before planning for farms around here.” James Glenn Ti Tree “The issue that the community from Alekarenge raised about their water and what the impact could be where they’re growing their vegies. They’ve got the watermelon farm and it’s so Peter Corbett many litres they’re going to use for that Alekarenge number of years. I think there needs to be more input and consultation, “It should not have given them so much water. The water should especially for those who don’t really benefit communities near Singleton. We have a farm that’s operating understand yet, and give them time.” near our community and it’s going to take most of the water away and it’s wasting the water of other communities. It’s not right.” Jeffrey Foster Tennant Creek “The government shouldn’t have done it. The people who own that country, that’s their water. The Chinese mob shouldn’t take over. The water belongs to the people of that country and it should stay that way.” Josephine Grant Ti Tree “It’s not the right decision. I support the traditional owners telling the government not to take so much water. It’s the traditional owner’s land, it’s their water. It’s not the government’s water. The government is in the big city, they should take the water from there, not on country. They need to do a big review.” Ismael Palmer Roger Tommy Lajamanu Alpurrurulam “I think that’s just way too much. It definitely would be a problem “We don’t want them to take all that for our future generations because the amount they are requesting is water, we may have no water left for so much water. We need water for the long term for our people that our communities. They can have two live on their country. These people are just going to come, take that bores, but no more than that.

December 2017 Research conducted by Ninti One Ltd in conjunction with Nyangatjatjara College Dr Sam Osborne, Dr John Guenther, Lorraine King, Karina Lester, Sandra Ken, Rose Lester 1 Executive Summary Since 2011, Nyangatjatjara College has conducted a series of student and community interviews aimed at providing feedback to the school regarding student experiences and their future aspirations. These narratives have developed significantly over the last seven years and this study, a broader research piece, highlights a shift from expressions of social and economic uncertainty to narratives that are more explicit in articulating clear directions for the future. These include: • A strong expectation that education should engage young people in training and work experiences as a pathway to employment in the community • Strong and consistent articulation of the importance of intergenerational engagement to 1. Ground young people in their stories, identity, language and culture 2. Encourage young people to remain focussed on positive and productive pathways through mentoring 3. Prepare young people for work in fields such as ranger work and cultural tourism • Utilise a three community approach to semi-residential boarding using the Yulara facilities to provide access to expert instruction through intensive delivery models • Metropolitan boarding programs have realised patchy outcomes for students and families. The benefits of these experiences need to be built on through realistic planning for students who inevitably return (between 3 weeks and 18 months from commencement).

  • Submission to the Northern Territory Suicide Prevention Strategic Review
    Central Australian Aboriginal Congress 30 July 2017 Central Australian Aboriginal Congress Submission to the Northern Territory Suicide Prevention Strategic Review 30 July 2017 Submitted by: Donna Ah Chee Chief Executive Officer Central Australian Aboriginal Congress Aboriginal Corporation PO Box 1604, Alice Springs NT 0871 T: 08 89514401 E: [email protected] 1 Central Australian Aboriginal Congress 30 July 2017 Executive summary The Central Australian Aboriginal Congress (Congress) is the largest Aboriginal community-controlled health service (ACCHS) in the Northern Territory, providing a comprehensive, holistic and culturally- appropriate primary health care service to more than 14 000 Aboriginal people living in and nearby Alice Springs each year as well as the remote communities of Ltyentye Apurte (Santa Teresa), Ntaria (Hermannsburg) and Wallace Rockhole, Utju (Areyonga), Mutitjulu and Amoonguna. The suicide rate for Aboriginal Australians is almost twice the rate for non-Aboriginal Australians (AIHW, 2016). This submission to the Northern Territory Government’s development of a Suicide Prevention Strategic Plan addresses suicide prevention from a social determinants, population health and primary prevention perspective, as well as from a mental health service delivery perspective. Particular attention is given to young Aboriginal people who have highest national rates of suicide, which can be largely attributed to unhealthy early childhood development, linked to disadvantage. Key issues raised in this submission are: . That suicide in Aboriginal communities is fundamentally linked to disempowerment, disadvantage and the social determinants of health. Unhealthy brain development, self-regulation and coping skills in early childhood are linked to suicide. This is a key issue for young Aboriginal people who are falling well behind in the Australian Early Development Census (AEDC) by age 5.

    Central Australian Aboriginal Congress submission to: the Productivity Commission’s Inquiry into the Social and Economic Benefits of Improving Mental Health About Congress Central Australian Aboriginal Congress (Congress) is the largest Aboriginal community-controlled health service (ACCHS) in the Northern Territory, providing a comprehensive, holistic and culturally-appropriate primary health care service to more than 14 000 Aboriginal people living in Alice Springs each year as well as the remote communities of Ltyentye Apurte (Santa Teresa), Ntaria (Hermannsburg) and Wallace Rockhole, Utju (Areyonga), Mutitjulu and Amoonguna. Congress operates within a comprehensive primary health care (CPHC) framework, providing a range of services in remote areas of Central Australia. Alongside general practice, services and programs on issues such as alcohol, tobacco and other drugs; early childhood development and family support; and mental health and social and emotional well-being are also provided. We also advocate for those social determinants of health (both physical and mental) including education, housing and justice. About this submission Congress has written a number of submissions relevant to the terms of reference of the inquiry. They include addressing the factors that are fundamental to good health and economic and social participation, as well as mental health services. The main arguments and recommendations are outlined below, along with links to the related submissions which are clearly referenced with research evidence and data to support our reasoning. To view the full suite of our submissions, please see https://www.caac.org.au/aboriginal-health/policy-submissions-publications. Determinants of good mental health and participation Poor mental health is heavily associated with social inequality and disempowerment, which includes the specific historical and contemporary issues experienced by Aboriginal peoples.
