Ubuntu Collective
It starts and ends with you.
A grassroots organisation run by and for African Australians.
The African Australian Creative Media Grants.
We want to amplify the voices and stories of African Australian creatives in screen media, visual arts, podcasting, radio and written media. Now is the time to get your grant ready.
Who we are
Together for better.
Our name is also our philosophy. As embraced by Nelson Mandela, it means “I am because we are”. By our community. For our community. We are Ubuntu. Together for better.
Programs
We go where the
need is greatest.
We run a variety of programs and services, all with the same goal: creating positive outcomes for young African Australians.
Employment
Women’s Health and Wellbeing Program
Delivered in partnership with Amanah Studios, this culturally safe health education and yoga program supports women of African-Australian heritage to improve their physical and mental wellbeing. The program combines practical health education with yoga and wellbeing activities, while building confidence and creating opportunities.
Employment
Employment Program
A program that helps young African Australians turn ambition into a career. Through mentoring, personal career planning, hands-on placements and real connections with industry, we help young people discover where their strengths lie and build the confidence to pursue them. And because success depends on both sides, we work with employers to make workplaces where talent from every background can flourish.
Community Engagement
Community Engagement Programs
A wide range of initiatives, including school holiday programs, youth engagement, learning and capacity building and recreational activities. These programs connect community members, with a strong focus on young people from the African Australian community.
