In April, ladies from Amata spent 4 days in Yulara on a work exposure trip. This was an opportunity to learn about all the departments and opportunities at Voyages.

Thank you for giving our RAES participants such a great experience.

This is a wonderful example of how collaborating with other service providers like PYEC and Voyages can provide opportunities and experiences for Anangu on the Lands.
