Denise was invited by community elders to the remote Aboriginal town of Lockhart River in the far north of Cape York and was scheduled to stay for three months. She ended up staying for five and a half years and is currently living back in Lockhart River. Denise developed a deep understanding of the poverty and disadvantage the community has faced for generations, the strength and determination of the people who live there, and the hard fact that, despite good intentions, standard government processes for programs and funding do not deliver the solutions needed. This talk was given at a TEDx event held in the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. For more information, visit https://www.ted.com/tedx
