Helping the bush with training and jobs

Julalikari Job Place reports
Like many of the Northern Territory's remote communities, Robinson River is experiencing high unemployment in a community where there is no major industry group. There is, however, a fledgling industry is being developed through a brick works and poultry farm.
Julalikari Job Place went to Robinson River and met with the local council to discuss employment development strategy to create real long-term employment options for the community. The first project that was looked at was a plumbing and irrigation project to be linked to a new sewerage system currently being built.
Job Place is also be looking at other strategies in which the poultry farm and the brick works can be further developed to the benefit of the community.
