Partnership and Collaboration Opportunities

Karlup acknowledges that walking alongside each other through collaboration is required when addressing the many complex issues faced by our community much of which is directly linked to social inequality, poverty, removal from country, loss of identity, disempowerment, and generations of genocide, grief, and traumatic experiences.

Karlup would welcome collaboration with other Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations, Not for Profit Organizations, philanthropic organisations, Aboriginal Led businesses, and individuals about opportunities to work together to improve access affordable accommodation, increase opportunities for Aboriginal developed and led services, and improving cultural knowledge and security for Aboriginal People throughout the City of Swan.

Current Partnerships include:
