Working with local government organisations, Ethan Indigenous’ new program turns corporate waste into community investment.

Each year, thousands of laptops are discarded by organisations needing to upgrade their tech to keep their businesses running efficiently. Ethan Indigenous, a 100% Australian-owned tech company invests straight back into the community, putting much needed resources directly into the hands of Indigenous and Torres Strait educators.

CEO of Ethan Indigenous David Liddiard said “Research shows that keeping these youth engaged with their education translates to higher rates of tertiary education enrollments and therefore professional careers. This program has a direct influence in engagement and attendance rates.”
