Mission Profile

Nungalinya College co-teachers

Supported by BCA from Mid 2026

BCA is supporting Nungalinya College so they can employ Indigenous co-teachers. Nungalinya’s vision is to equip Indigenous men and women for leadership roles in both churches and communities. One of the most critical components of Nungalinya’s success in recent years has been the involvement of Indigenous teachers. These educators bring invaluable lived experience, cultural understanding, and unique perspectives that are essential in creating a learning environment that is both culturally respectful and biblically grounded.

About Nungalinya College
Larrakia Country

Nungalinya College is a combined churches training college for Indigenous Australians. The College trains men and women for leadership roles in churches and communities by exploring the Bible and Christian faith contextually. Students are trained to understand and participate healthily in community life while strengthening and celebrating Indigenous identity. Approximately 95 per cent of the student intake is from remote communities across the NT, WA, QLD, and down into SA.
