Ernie Dingo has retired from his role as Ambassador of the Program. We now engage local ambassadors from the communities in which we work.
Co Founder and Former Ambassador
The popularity of our camps is no doubt related to the fact that Ernie Dingo was the co-founder of the program and responsible for driving the pilot program and winning the AMHF men’s health program award
I’d rather be out bush with my Countrymen than in the big smoke. Healing happens out on country. When you bring our men together like this something special happens. We yarn good ways. We heal. We practice our culture. We share our languages and lore and we make stories and sing and dance. These camps are the working just the way I imagined. Our men are showing up and taking centre stage in their own destiny and health journey. I’m proud I was the inaugral ambassador and think there’s great things ahead for local men to step up as ambassadors for these camps.
