Georgina Pastoral Future NTCA
Progra

The Georgina Pastoral Future NTCA program was first established in 2014 to inspire, empower and support the next generation of leaders within the Northern Territory pastoral industry. This initiative provides a vital opportunity in allowing the future leaders of the industry to be involved in the planning and decision making within the NTCA today.

The program has been successful in growing the potential of the industry’s youth; capturing new ideas, networking and injecting renewed enthusiasm. Now approaching its ninth year, the Georgina Pastoral Future NTCA program provides participants with the opportunity to network with current industry leaders, stake-holders and representatives from Territory and Federal Governments.

Participation in the program will support the future leaders to establish relationships and the capacity to positively influence individual career aspirations as well as guaranteeing the continuing growth and prosperity of the pastoral industry
