Dr Kishan Kariippanon:
SwitchOn! Magazine is produced to engage young
people from a variety of interests and cultural background, through content
that is both educational and
entertaining. The opportunity that SwitchOn magazine
brings to Yolngu young people from Arnhem Land, is to
enable them to share their
ancient traditional culture
with the world through the
‘Caring for Country’ feature.
Yolngu young people are
proud to showcase their cultural knowledge on a platform that is culturally appropriate. SwitchOn Magazine
is a also a practical way to
bring youth and wellness to
the core of our engagement
young people.

SwitchOn! Magazine is a
fantastic new resource for
young people and everyone
who works with them: full of
interesting, thought-provoking articles and information
to help understand our relationship with the world we
live in and inspire a positive
sense of the future. I highly
recommend it for teachers
and students alike.
Reader’s comment:
I love reading SwitchOn
with my kids; it is such an
incredible
resource
for
school students while also
being topical about the big
issues of the day that affect
us all. As a Mum, I am really impressed that such a
rich resource is suitable for
all ages, especially kids,
to read - with appropriate,
educational and interesting
articles - and a great social
conscience. Virginia
