How do you take on global inequity?
Back in 2014, AIME was having real success as a mentoring organisation tackling one of Australia’s most intractable problems:closing the education gap for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander kids and seeing them complete high school at the same rate as other Australian kids. Why would a growing non-profit organisation – that seemed to be going from strength to strength with a huge base of support behind them – risk everything in an attempt to take its mentoring model to kids outside the margins around the world?
7 Down tells the story of AIME, an Indigenous-led organisation, going global from the point of view of 7 people who have been an integral part of the highs, the lows, the confusion, the excitement, the failure and the learnings of a 7-year journey to try and change the world.
