Michelle goes Walkabout
Story
Hi there,
I'm taking part in the Larapinta Trek Challenge where I will be walking 78.5km over tough terrain in the Northern Territory to raise funds for The MALPA Project. We'll be hiking, camping and helping a great cause along the way.
I had a practice go in the National Park in mid-April and I'm not really sure these boots are made for walking, but it's in the name of charity, so I will give it a go....
Please help me in my efforts by clicking donate now and making a secure online donation to my page.
Thank you!
Activity
The Malpa Project
The Malpa Project is dedicated to supporting Aboriginal people to help themselves. In partnership with a range of senior elders in Central Australia we have developed the Child Doctors project. This is in response to a situation that is a cause for deep national concern. A few statistics help illustrate the problem. 91% of Aboriginal kids in the NT suffer from Otitis media leading to deafness. 25 % are affected by Trachoma putting them at risk of blindness.
Our response involves Indigenous and non-Indigenous health professionals working together to train kids [8-10 year olds] living in Aboriginal communities as "child doctors" so they can act as health ambassadors to their peers and younger children. The concept emerges from the highly successful World Health Organisation Little Doctor programs and most importantly builds on traditional Aboriginal approaches to health service delivery. This is Aboriginal people helping improve the lives of their children.
