Rise of Young Leaders in Mt Druitt

Mounty Yarns shares the intricate details of Aboriginal young people in Mt Druitt’s experiences of injustice, but within these stories of hardship are sparks of resistance, skill, and knowledge. These flickers are being nurtured into flames of a new generation of youth leadership, rising in Mt Druitt.

Healing the Heart of the Macleay

When Dunghutti woman Jo Kelly speaks about her work, it becomes evident that her decades of experience as a fierce advocate, compassionate leader and community connecter have profoundly shaped her approach today.

Building stronger relationships

Once a much-maligned township, suffering from one of NSW’s highest Aboriginal youth conviction and incarceration rates, Bourke and its 2,500-strong population are now considered trailblazers, forging a new path towards community strength through a radical approach driven by the community itself.

Mannifera

Dusseldorp Forum are proud to be a part of Mannifera, a collective of Australian funders working together to support a fairer democracy and economy for everyone. Since its inception in 2019, Mannifera have invested over $4.3 million in civil society organisations that actively collaborate and advocate for structural change.

In the past 12 months Mannifera has continued to advance its mission of fostering a fairer democracy and economy in Australia through strategic grantmaking and collaborative efforts. Key impacts from the year include:

Strengthening First Nations Economic Inclusion: Mannifera’s First Nations practice, guided by a panel of Indigenous advisors, allocated grants to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisations focusing on economic inclusion and enterprise development, reinforcing Indigenous-led economic networks.

Advocating for Fairer Economic Systems: Partners working on tax and economic reforms effectively brought issues like intergenerational fairness and the wellbeing economy into mainstream policy discussions, influencing lawmakers and public debate.

Combating Disinformation: In response to the challenges posed by misinformation, especially following the 2023 Voice referendum, Mannifera supported initiatives aimed at protecting public understanding and democratic decision-making from the impacts of disinformation amplified by technology and social media.

Promoting Transparency and Accountability: While early successes were noted, progress on federal integrity reforms was mixed, with some legislation falling short due to bipartisan resistance. Mannifera’s partners continued to advocate for higher standards of transparency and accountability in government.

Defending Democratic Participation: Through litigation, advocacy, and coalition-building, Mannifera’s partners worked to resist antidemocratic reforms and enhance civic participation among underrepresented groups, including drafting bills, engaging in legal challenges, and forming national coalitions to advance key reforms.

Narrative Practice: Strong Stories and Connections

Dusseldorp Forum partnered with the Dulwich Centre to deliver the Narrative Practice Project, a series of travelling workshops across Mt Druitt, Bourke, and Kempsey. These workshops equipped community leaders with Narrative Practice skills, supporting communities to tell their own stories of change.

Narrative practice is an approach that supports people and communities tell their own stories in a way that highlights their strengths, values, and knowledge. It focuses on listening deeply, asking meaningful questions, and recognising the skills and wisdom people use to overcome challenges, so their experiences shape solutions and change.

Through these workshops, communities developed new engagement techniques, improved practices in youth and family support systems, and deepened relationships across regions.

Participants received Level 1 accreditation in Narrative Therapy, and ongoing coaching ensured they could apply these practices in their work.

Narrative Practice in Action

These two-day workshops led to meaningful changes across the communities:

Bourke: A local judge praised the shift in how young people’s stories are communicated to the court using these techniques.

Mount Druitt: Narrative practices have been integrated into case planning, community support, and training for Youth Justice staff.

Kempsey: The community is using narrative techniques to enhance communication and engagement strategies.

“It was like flood water, seeing the effect the workshop had. Everyone was talking about how good it felt to be part of something.” – Buddy Moore

Community Connection: Strengthening Relationships​

Beyond the skills learned, these workshops deepened connections between communities, individuals, and Country. Participants travelled together, shared meals cooked by locals, and visited significant cultural sites like the Brewarrina Fish Traps and the Dunghutti coastline.

They also participated in cultural activities, including Bourke’s cultural dance night and the 100th anniversary commemoration of Kinchela Boys Home.

Through this experience:

  • Teams strengthened bonds within their communities
  • New relationships formed between different regions
  • Connections to Country and cultural identity were reinforced
  • Family links were rediscovered
  • Dusseldorp Forum’s connection with communities deepened
Collectives: Amplifying Impact

Forming alliances, partnerships and joint initiatives has been the approach of Dusseldorp Forum since inception; making an impact that reaches beyond the sum of our parts.

Creating a more just and equitable society requires more than one program, organisation, or initiative. There is great value in connecting diverse individuals and organisations across sectors to foster collaborative relationships and collective actions which generate more coordinated strategic effort towards structural reform.

That’s why we have joined Mannifera Collective, Groundswell Giving, and the Investment Dialogue for Australia’s Children (IDAC). These partnerships demonstrate the transformative power of working together.

Pooling resources allows us to increase funding scale and provide long-term support for critical issues. Sharing knowledge strengthens decision-making and fosters innovation. Risk-sharing enables us to tackle complex or underfunded challenges, and collaboration builds trust, accountability, and influence – ensuring better education, health, cultural and environmental outcomes.

Mannifera Collective: Strengthening Democracy​

Mannifera is a collective of funders committed to a healthy democracy and a fairer economy. Since 2019, the collective has backed civil society organisations to drive policy change and public advocacy investing over $4.3 million.

Mannifera works with organisations across the following areas:

  • First Nations economic inclusion
  • Building fair tax and economic systems
  • Improving quality public debate
  • Ensuring accountable and open government
  • Fostering inclusive political participation

PLACE: A Milestone for Place-Based Collaboration​

“PLACE will help make the invisible, visible. It will enable us to share our successes and accelerate shared learning. It is a genuine opportunity to invest in future generations with the support and resources to enable the true ambitions and aspirations of our communities.” 


Alister Ferguson, Founder, Maranguka, Bourke NSW

For over a decade, communities across Australia have been leading place-based collectives that tackle social, environmental, economic and cultural challenges. By working in genuine partnership, these initiatives are driving positive change for children and families.

Dusseldorp Forum has been deeply involved in five place-based initiatives that have sparked new ways of working. Maranguka’s success influenced state and federal Justice Reinvestment policy, Logan Together helped shape the Stronger Places, Stronger People (SPSP) policy, and Our Place’s school-based model was adopted by the Victorian Education Department.

Yet despite their clear impact, place-based efforts struggle to access the coordinated support required to embed the positive changes they demonstrate. 2024 marked a turning point with the establishment of PLACE – Partnerships for Local Action and Communities Empowerment, a national centre designed to strengthen place-based collaboration.

PLACE
A National Shift Toward Place-Based Policy

Announced by Treasurer Jim Chalmers and Minister for Social Services Amanda Rishworth on 30 October 2024, PLACE represents a fundamental shift in how government, philanthropy, and communities work together.

“Place-based support has and can have a profound impact, and now more Australian communities will benefit from these initiatives.”
 – Treasurer Jim Chalmers

A National Shift Toward Place-Based Policy
Key Partnerships That Led to PLACE

As a co-investor in the $38 million initiative, Dusseldorp Forum has worked alongside community partners like Maranguka (NSW) and Logan Together (QLD) and other leading foundations to bring this vision, of working in a different way with government, to life. PLACE will act as a support system – a hub for shared learning, partnership, and policy innovation for place-based initiatives.

With this national infrastructure in place, we have an opportunity to embed community-driven change in policy and back the vision for thriving people and places for generations to come.

Wilya Janta

Wilya Janta is an innovative Aboriginal not-for-profit cultural consultancy that promotes community agency in the design and construction of housing in Indigenous communities. They seek to put the tenant at the centre of the design process to build culturally appropriate, climate-resistant homes for remote Indigenous communities.

They believe the current Indigenous remote housing development model has several key issues, including a near non-existent design consultation process with the tenant and community, poor thermal efficiency, overcrowding, a lack of cultural consideration, and insufficient maintenance. Due to the expensive nature of maintaining their homes, residents often face health issues and financial hardships. Wilya Janta seek to overcome these issues by introducing a new, affordable, more sustainable, and scalable standard for remote housing through a culturally sensitive collaboration, design, and building process.

Wilya Janta

As part of the project’s first two phases, they undertook community and site engagement and a highly collaborative design process with residents in 2024. Operating under a unique constitution written by Warumungu Elders, Wilya Janta are creating houses by and for First Nations people that are fit for purpose, culturally safe, off-grid, and climate-resilient.

Wilya Janta will commence building two demonstration and display houses as part of their Tennant Creek Housing Pilot in Jurnkkurakurr/Warumungu in 2025. With ongoing reviews, they hope to refine and replicate the process and see it widely adopted by other communities.

Our Place

Our Place take a holistic, place-based approach to supporting the education, health, and development of all children and families. It facilitates partnerships to help overcome the barriers to educational achievement, using schools as a central location to provide high-quality learning environments and integrated support services for early prevention and intervention.

An initiative of the Colman Education Foundation, Our Place operates in 11 Victorian schools in 9 communities in a 10-year partnership with the Victorian Government. Last year, their partnership with the Victorian Department of Education introduced a new data-sharing agreement to provide richer data for future evaluations.

website
our place roadmap

In 2024, national interest in the Our Place approach and school community platform models increased significantly. Over 30 groups ⎯ including Victorian Government departments and interstate organisations ⎯ visited Our Place sites to learn how to adapt the approach into new contexts. The Australian Government’s Economic Inclusion Advisory Committee and The Review to Inform a Better and Fairer Education System also recommended that school community platform models be adopted to tackle inequitable educational outcomes.

Robinvale College, one of their sites in northwest Victoria, also achieved progress. New family engagement approaches, including craft sessions, and a school attendance action plan were introduced. Initiatives like The Language Cafe, funded by the Department of Job, Skills, Industries, and Regions (DJSIR), connected adults with services like employment, driver licenses, and working with children checks. Negotiations are underway to introduce local health services like speech pathology and occupational therapy to the school.

Mounty Aboriginal Youth and Community Service (MAYCS) Mt Druitt

Mounty Aboriginal Youth and Community Service (MAYCS) are an Aboriginal-controlled youth service in Mt Druitt (Darug Country in Western Sydney) that strives to enable young people to lead solutions that protect and free them from harmful systems. The organisation was created in response to Mounty Yarns, a storytelling project by Aboriginal young people from Mt Druitt with lived experience of the criminal justice system. Mounty Yarns showed the impact the criminal justice system has on the Mt Druitt community and presented young people’s ideas for change.

Last year saw the MAYACS team grow from five to 12 full-time local Aboriginal staff members, four youth ambassadors, and one community-led programming role. MAYCS secured $3.3 million in government grants ⎯ $2.3 million to continue their justice reinvestment work over the next three years and almost $1 million for their Youth on Track (YOT) early intervention program. They have secured the YOT funding for a futher three years. MAYCS also expanded their youth-led programs, adding a weekly women’s healing day and are planning a women’s retreat.

website

Continuing to elevate young people to play a significant role in leading the organisation was another highlight, with young people being involved with setting the strategic direction and governance of the organisation. Using the Mounty Yarns advocacy tool, five young people in the MAYCS team were paid to run a workshop for 15 members of Youth Justice sharing how their policies impact Aboriginal young people in the juvenile justice system. The Mounty Team and their Youth Ambassadors presented at many important events this year including at government, sector and community conferences sharing their expertise in Justice Reinvestment and youth-led work, including presenting in multiple workshops at ChangeFest.

The Mounty Team also took part in the Narrative Practice Workshops, supported by Dusseldorp Forum in 2024, to build narrative skills and create connections to support their long-term efforts.

Maranguka

Maranguka, meaning ‘caring for others’ in the local Ngemba language, is a community-led, place-based initiative in the New South Wales town of Bourke that seeks to create better futures for local children and their families. A collaboration between the Bourke Tribal Council, community, government, and non-government organisations, Maranguka is the first justice reinvestment site in Australia. It forms part of the federal government’s Stronger Places, Stronger People initiative.

In 2024, Maranguka experienced many meaningful highlights. The youth hub in Bourke was reestablished, and youth development officers were recruited. The hub now serves as a vital platform for local young people to access mentorship, cultural programs, and essential services. Maranguka’s ongoing work in youth justice and out-of-home care provided pathways away from the justice system, while increasing access to training, education and job opportunities for young people in Bourke and beyond.

The formalisation of the NSW Western Health District Data Sharing Agreement last year will greatly enhance health outcomes for First Nations communities and ensure that community-led insights drive health policy and service improvements. New government grants and partnerships will also expand Maranguka’s reach, services, and capacity in youth justice, family support and services, justice reinvestment, and community development.

Members of Maranguka’s team also took part in the Narrative Practice Workshops, supported by Dusseldorp Forum in 2024, to build narrative skills and create connections to support their long-term efforts.

Learning the Macleay 

Learning the Macleay (LtM) is a community led initiative that aims to bring the entire community together to understand the issues and design the solutions. It draws on community’s collective wisdom and locally tailored, evidence-driven solutions to empower families and children for a stronger future.

Listening, connecting and sharing with community were central to LtM’s work in 2024. Championing the belief that no one understands the local community as well as the community itself, LtM conducted a six-week community survey at pop-up stalls across Macleay Valley. The survey generated 443 responses and offered insight into the community priorities for 2025 and beyond.

website
Learning the Macleay
Inspired by a digital storytelling workshop at ChangeFest, the national movement for community-led systems change in Australia, LtM held various digital storytelling training workshops in their community. Understanding the importance of elevating community voices from across the Macleay Valley, LtM invested in media equipment, including cameras, formed a community media team, and have been creating and sharing stories across their social media channels.

Another highlight in 2024 was the Yuwa Nyinda Dream Academy, designed and delivered by LtM and Dhina Durriti Aboriginal Corporation (DDAC) to inspire young people to dream big. The two-day event, held in August, brought together over 1,500 children and young people to spark creativity and discover purpose and passion. The event included creative workshops, a career zone, a cultural space, social activities and a community celebration with live performances.

The LtM team also took part in the Narrative Practice Workshops, supported by Dusseldorp Forum in 2024, to build narrative skills and create connections to support their long-term efforts.
