Have your say on the new Remote Jobs and Economic Development Program

The Australian Government is investing $707 million to deliver the Remote Jobs and Economic Development (RJED) program. The program is developed in partnership with First Nations people to support people in remote communities to move into paid employment by funding real jobs that communities want. Your feedback is important to help inform the design and implementation of the RJED program.

Your feedback is important to help inform the design and implementation of the RJED program. 

We want to hear from individuals, communities and organisations who have an interest in remote employment about how the program might work and what jobs are needed.

There are a number of ways that you can provide feedback on the program including through feedback sessions in remote communities across Australia and an online survey

Find out more about the RJED consultations at niaa.gov.au/rjed-consultations, or contact your local NIAA office on 1800 079 098. 

Survey closes 30 June.
