The Australian Wind Construction Collective

The Australian Wind Construction Collective is a collaboration of industry leaders participating in Yaamagara – an Australian Wind Construction Collective initiative established under the shared objective of building resilience into remote projects and establishing baseline in safety performance whilst creating a training pathway for regional and indigenous workers.

With Yaamagara phase 1 complete, the Australian Wind Construction Collective was formalised by Risk Services Australia in collaboration with Wright Training and Aboriginal Insights to fund the Australian Wind Construction Safety Conference 2022 – a conference designed to promote industry awareness of the performance in wind construction and to support tangible positive outcomes in training and employment.
