  • Store Nutrition Report and Market Basket Survey.Pdf
    Store Nutrition Report and Market Basket Survey April 2014 Nganampa Health Council Erin McLean, Kate Annat and Prof Amanda Lee April 2014 Executive Summary The report provides Market Basket pricing and data analysis of Mai Wiru compliance with standardised food and nutrition checklists from stores on the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands in South Australia collected in April 2014. The report focuses on the Mai Wiru group stores (Pipalyatjara, Kanpi, Amata, Fregon and Pukatja). Pricing data was also collected from Mimili (Outback Stores), Indulkana (independent) and Coles and IGA Foodlands supermarkets in Alice Springs. The purpose of this report is to provide key recommendations for Mai Wiru store councils to aid decision-making regarding food and nutrition issues. Data was collected in-store from 7-11 April 2014. Information was collected on the price, availability and promotion of foods, as well as Mai Wiru store achievement of the Remote Indigenous Stores and Takeaways (RIST) checklist benchmarks and implementation of nutrition recommendations from the previous Market Basket report (September, 2013). Nutrition promotion activities were also performed in all the Mai Wiru stores, including one pot cooking demonstrations and installation of sugar-in-food displays and posters. Results show that, in April 2014, Mai Wiru stores: • Are clean, functional and well stocked; • Provide a wide range of healthy foods and beverages; and • Price healthy foods at a competitive rate for remote areas. In April 2014 the average price of the Market Basket in the Mai Wiru stores was $734 dollars and had increased only 0.3% since September 2014. In comparison to the other stores monitored during the same period the Mai Wiru store prices were 4.3% less than Mimili, 1.0% more than Indulkana, only 13.0% more than Alice Springs IGA Foodlands and 34.4% more than Coles.

  • Far Removed: an Insight Into the Labour Markets of Remote Communities in Central Australia
    145 AUSTRALIAN JOURNAL OF LABOUR ECONOMICS VOLUME 19 • NUMBER 3 • 2016 Far Removed: An Insight into the Labour Markets of Remote Communities in Central Australia Michael Dockery, Curtin Business School Judith Lovell, Charles Darwin University Abstract There are ongoing debates about the livelihoods of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians living in remote communities, and the role for policy in addressing socio- economic equity and the economic viability of those communities. The characteristics and dynamics of remote labour markets are important parameters in many of these debates. However, remote economic development discourses are often conducted with limited access to empirical evidence of the actual functioning of labour markets in remote communities – evidence that is likely to have important implications for the efficacy of policy alternatives. Unique survey data collected from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders living in 21 remote communities in central Australia for the Cooperative Research Centre for Remote Economic Participation’s Population Mobility and Labour Markets project are used to examine these labour markets, with a focus on the role of education and training. Examining access to education, employment opportunity and other structural factors, it is clear that the reality of economic engagement in these communities is far removed from the functioning of mainstream labour markets. The assumptions about, or lack of distinction between remote and urban locations, have contributed to misunderstanding of the assets and capabilities remote communities have, and aspire to develop. Evidence from the survey data on a number of fronts is interpreted to suggest policies to promote employment opportunity within communities offer greater potential for improving the livelihoods of remote community residents than policies reliant on the assumption that residents will move elsewhere for work.

  • Watarru Collaboration
    Watarru Collaboration Language Group Pitjantjatjara Region APY Lands Biography The artists of Watarru have received high acclaim for their collaborative paintings. Their initial collaborative works were commissioned by the Department for Environment and Heritage and now hang permanently in the South Australian Parliament. These are the first Indigenous paintings to hang in parliament house. In 2007 they won a major prize in the national Drawing Together competition sponsored by the Australian Public Service Commission, a competitive award, which attracted over 570 entries from across Australia. Tjungu Palya : Located about 100kms south of Uluru, Nyapari is set at the base of the majestic Mann Ranges in the heart of country traditionally owned by the Pitjantjatjara people. These ranges known to Anangu as Murputja, likening the mountain to the bony ridge of a person’s spine, are the source of many water holes and traditional camping places. The homelands of Kanpi, Nyapari, Angatja, Umpukulu and Tjankanu have grown from these seasonal camping places into permanent settlements. Over fifty artists from Murputja joined together with family members living in traditional country 180kms to the south at Watarru and created Tjungu Palya (Good Together). The artists involved in this work vary but are generally, Beryl Jimmy, Tinpulya Mervin, Wipana Jimmy and Imitjala Pollard. Tjungu Palya is 100% owned and managed by Aboriginal people ensuring the wealth of talent and economic returns are retained in the community. Tjungu Palya promotes cultural integrity and the ethical sales of authentic art.

It was a privilege for State Cabinet to visit the region and be welcomed to experience Anangu culture, visit amazing communities and be immersed in the stunning ancient landscape. During the three day Country Cabinet visit from 30 April to 2 May 2017, my Cabinet Ministers and I visited communities across the vast APY Lands. We spoke to hundreds of people, met with community leaders and heard from service providers about the key issues facing Anangu. We gained valuable insights into the matters of importance for the whole APY Lands and also those issues impacting individual communities. Anangu told us they want better roads, upgraded community infrastructure and services that are easier to access.
