The commitment of the ILC and collaborators to enabling employment outcomes for Indigenous Australians resulted in the achievement of just over double the target set. Employment outcomes for 2013–14 were higher than expected due to applicants, and strategic collaborators, emphasis on employment across a range of environmental, cultural and socio-economic projects. As can be seen in Table 6, employment outcomes were recorded in all categories of employment. Significantly, 330 or 33% of the outcomes were new Indigenous jobs. Although maintaining jobs is a key aim of the ILC, it is important to Indigenous livelihoods that new jobs are created. This is not achieved alone and the ILC acknowledges the collaborative role of key organizations that come together to enable such opportunities.
