The purpose of Yuwaya Ngarra-li is for the Dharriwaa Elders Group and �鶹��madou to work together to improve the wellbeing, social, built and physical environment and life pathways of Aboriginal people in Walgett through collaborating on evidence-based initiatives, research and capacity building.

Yuwaya Ngarra-li (pronounced you-why-uh nyuh-ruh-lee) is enabled by community, university, government and philanthropic support. The name Yuwaya Ngarra-li is the phrase for dream (yuwa-ya) from sleep-in, and see (ngarra-li) in the Yuwaalaraay and Yuwaalayaay languages. The Dharriwaa Elders Group chose this phrase to reflect that our partnership represents the DEG's vision for community-led development and positive change.
