OUR STORY
OUR STORY
In 1998, a group of Redfern residents came together with the vision of revitalising Aboriginal culture through economic and social stability.
Tribal Warrior has been a central part of the Redfern community for over two decades. Throughout this time of rebuild and change, our vision has been unwavering – we empower our community through connection to culture and family. All our activities are designed to contribute to a Redfern that is strong in its history, proud of its achievements, and economically self-sustaining into the future.
"Empowering our community through connection to culture and family"
Tribal Warrior is a non-profit community organisation relying on the community for both practical and financial support. Help make a difference today and show your support by making a donation.
Over the years, Tribal Warrior has grown into a multifaceted social enterprise with a strong focus on cultural preservation, education, and community empowerment.
The organisation is deeply committed to preserving and promoting Aboriginal culture, offering a range of cultural tours and experiences, educating both locals and visitors about the rich history and traditions of Aboriginal people. Tribal Warrior initially started with maritime training programs aimed at providing employment opportunities for local Aboriginal men. This training has since expanded to include various vocational programs designed to upskill community members and create pathways to sustainable employment.
Tribal Warrior runs several social programs aimed at addressing the needs of the Indigenous community. Through its various initiatives, Tribal Warrior has become a model for economic empowerment within the Aboriginal community. By generating income through social enterprises and creating job opportunities, the organisation helps to build economic self-sufficiency for Indigenous Australians.
