In 2008, the Noongar community in the Western Australia town of Narrogin was devastated by a series of suicides. In response to the crisis, local leaders in the Narrogin Aboriginal Community reference group rallied to help families who had lost loved ones. A community forum was held and Aboriginal psychologist Darrell Henry was invited to come to Narrogin to provide urgent counselling services.
With Oxfam Australia’s support, Peter Nathan had the opportunity to meet some of Australia’s Indigenous leaders making a difference on the world stage.
