5. Minimbah Project: University of New England
Enabling progress through entrepreneurial action via projects such as …
Minimbah Project: University of New England
“Programs for Aboriginal inclusion are to, for, on and about. They are rarely with. True reconciliation is about the with … “
Gina Milgate: Kamilaroi and Wiradjuri Daughter, sister, Aunty and BAB Member
The Minimbah projects are about working ‘with’ our local Aboriginal community to empower them to take small steps to overcome the barriers which are contributing to their economic and social disadvantage. In 2012 the focus has been on legal identity. Without a legal identity our indigenous people are unable to take on many of the roles and activities which to the rest of us are a normal part of Australian life.
This year 120 Aboriginal and refugee students at the Minimbah Indigenous Pre and Primary School in Armidale took part in a” Birth Certificate Access Event” in collaboration with 3 government agencies; 2 non-profits and 2 private enterprises. As a result, 95 Aboriginal children were provided with their very first birth certificate. This means that these 95 Aboriginal children can now participate in sporting teams; access financial services; acquire a driver’s license; and travel overseas.

27. How does an established enactus team know if their projects are enabling progress through entrepreneurial action???

28. All enactus projects should meet the enactus judging criterion
“Considering the relevant economic, social, and environmental factors, which enactus team most effectively empowered people in need by applying business and economic concepts and an entrepreneurial approach to improve their quality of life and standard of living?”
See page 44 of the 2013 Enactus Team Handbook for more information on the criterion

29. But what does this mean??

30. “Considering the relevant economic, social and environmental factors”
Did the team consider how these factors may affect the project, or what impact their project will have on these factors

31. All enactus projects should aim to effectively empower people in need.
The enactus empowerment philosophy is focused around the idea:
“Give me a fish and I will eat for a day.
Teach me how to fish and I will eat for a
lifetime.”

32. Use entrepreneurial action to increase the quality of life and standard of living for its projects participants

33. Self-Auditing
To ensure your projects are meeting the enactus criteria and your team is performing at it’s best ability, enactus International recommends self-auditing.
