Technical Support Another critical service provided by CAAMA to BRACS communities, not just in their area but also to the eight communities under the Walpiri Media Revitalisation programme, is in technical advice, equipment purchase, installation, repair and maintenance. CAAMA have employed one full time technician since before the Revitalisation but really a fully resourced unit with several trainees is required to properly service all BRACS communities in Central Australia (including the Pitjantjatjara Lands). CAAMA have recently approached all their communities on this subject and it would appear that there are early favourable indications that they would transter any tied annual R&M funding to CAAMA to allow some form of this serviuce to be implemented. A couple of years ago CAAMA did advertise for an indigenous technical trainee position with an apprenticeship through Northern Territory University but could not attract a single applicant ! CAAMA is still seeking funding support to train indigenous technicians and is hopeful of a favourable outcome. CAAMA has also raised the concept of the establishment of a network of regional technical support facilities run and managed by Aboriginal people. This will ensure that regional media associations and BRACS communities receive effective and cost efficient technical support which they manage and will also create an industry leading to professional jobs for Aboriginal people in this area. Another primary reason for this is that our sector will get rid of many fly-in technical advisors who are not providing a quality, cost effective service to BRACS communities. Regional Management and Representation There is a need, as in all regional co-ordination units, for some formal consultative structural process for communities to have planning input and to ratify budgets formulated on their behalf. Regional BRACS meetings would not be expensive or difficult to hold in this area, all four communities being less than three hours drive away from Alice Springs. Way back at a TAFE funded workshop at Santa Teresa in 1988, remote communities all over Central Australia did form their own representative association called ABBA (Aboriginal Bush Broadcasters Association) with the intention of incorporation. They set up an office at CAAMA and employed Simon Butler as a liaison officer for a brief while but could not obtain funding to continue operations. While other regions have now established their own regionally representative incorporations, CAAMA do not actually have bush representation on their governing committee and should consider the establishment of a representative steering committee or working party to deal with networking and BRACS issues in the future .
