This paper explores the troubled history of local government and governance in Central Darling over the past decade, and the factors underlying that history.

This research investigates how the training sector could better meet the needs of regional, rural and remote Australia. It explores how various stakeholders in the vocational education and training (VET) system understand local skills needs, along with the barriers faced by registered training organisations (RTOs) when delivering training in such locations.

This study was developed in response to gaps in the available evidence to inform health policy and services and was preceded by extensive consultation with Aboriginal communities and services in South Australia.

Based on 95 surveys and 6 stakeholder interviews, this report outlines the initial findings from a 2022 visit and highlights the current access and use of media, telecommunications and online services, as well as the digital inclusion and service delivery challenges in Djarindjin and Lombadina.

This project emerged from conversations and existing relationships with Mornington Council and community members, who face complex challenges related to digital inclusion. This project aimed to address community concerns regarding access, affordability and digital skills, as well as internet safety.
