The passing of our founding CEO, Dr Colin Barlow, in December was indeed a sad time for us. Colin had devoted over 30 years to developing and running the NTA and through this helping many thousands of people living in poverty in Indonesia.

Colin has left us a great legacy and we fully intend to continue this important work. The organisation is in good shape and the majority of our approaches and systems are sound and place us well for the job in front.

NTA has a core of capable and devoted people who can keep the organisation running well in the short term. There is no need to rush. So we are taking our time to look at any changes we might make to the organisation and to select the new CEO. We are talking to a range of people and organisations about what we do well and about any enhancements we might make to our approaches to better meet future challenges.

In the meantime, NTA continues to be fully operational. It continues its promotional and fundraising efforts in Australia and the rolling out of activities in Indonesia. Click below and read on to find out what we have been up to.
