Giving something back: Funding health programs
Australian Indigenous communities are largely underfunded. As a result, the members of these communities can experience poor health, social and economic conditions, with lifelong disadvantage often being established in the early years.
Many Indigenous children suffer recurrent ear infections and some have severe hearing disabilities before they start school, which can result in poor educational and employment outcomes.
These infections can be prevented through environmental interventions, early detection and effective treatments.
We direct a significant proportion of each sale to the provision of hearing health services in the communities who gave us these myths, commencing in Arnhem Land where the Wulawait myth was collected.
