About Iwiri Aboriginal Corporation
Iwiri
Iwiri strengthens the Aṉangu community through providing social support programs, cultural and arts activities and employment opportunities in Port Adelaide. We want our young people to be strong in their language and culture and to take up opportunities to work for our community.
History
Iwiṟi was established by Aṉangu in 2018, many of whom had been forced to move to Adelaide due to chronic health conditions and lack of services in their home communities. Living far from their traditional homelands, Anangu were concerned about the cultural and social isolation they were experiencing and saw a need to act. Iwiri was formed initially to help retain, promote and transmit Anangu culture and language through the areas of arts, language, knowledge and community. Since then Iwiṟi has grown rapidly into an organization that delivers a range of programs that aim to strengthen and advance Aṉangu wellbeing.
Our Mission
Our mission is to promote the wellbeing of Aṉangu across the lifespan who are living away from their traditional homelands in Adelaide. Iwiri works towards achieving better outcomes for Aṉangu individuals and families who often face considerable disadvantage. We do this by running a number of programs that aim to nurture, strengthen and promote connection to key pillars of Aṉangu identity, Ngura (country/home) Tjukurpa (philosophy, Lore) Walytja (kinship and other relationships of connection) and Kurunpa (spirit/soul). As well as a focus on emotional, mental and cultural wellbeing we strive to create economic opportunity for Anangu through employment and arts based enterprise development.
