Home Visits Begin in Pipalyatjara, Kalka and Amata

Jul 26, 2021 | Pawa Atunmankunytjaku

At the beginning of July, we started off our first round of home visits in the APY Lands.

Thanks to the great work of our Energy Education Workers (EEWs), we have nearly completed the first round of home visits in Pipalyatjara, Kalka and Amata!  

The first visit included showing residents a short video “The Story of our Electricity”, and going through a poster book to explain the changes that are coming. We also conducted a home energy survey with households to gain an understanding of people’s energy knowledge and what kinds of appliances people have in their homes. After the presentation and survey, each household received a pannikin mug as a thank you gift (see image below). They also received a flyer with condensed information on what was discussed. The pannikin mugs were a great surprise to the residents and everyone was very grateful for the gift.

Our visit schedule has been delayed slightly due to COVID-19 lockdowns in SA. As soon as the borders open up we will be back out engaging with the residents in Amata, Pipalyatjara, Kalka, Kanpi and Nypari.

Money Mob recently partnered with the Central Desert Regional Council (CDRC) to deliver information sessions to aged care residents in Atitjere, Ti Tree, Wilora, Willowra, Laramba, Yuelamu and Lajamanu.

Alongside the residents, staff and carers had a chance to learn skills in financial literacy, saving goals, debt, financial abuse, humbug and making informed decisions when spending.

We provide practical financial literacy training services for individuals to gain confidence and competence in essential financial life skills.
