The word "Malparara" comes from the Malparara Way, where "Malpa" means "friend or colleague" in Pitjantjatjara, and "malparara" translates to "alongside a friend or colleague." This concept describes a collaborative approach to service delivery, where an Anangu worker and a non-indigenous worker partner together. The Anangu worker brings invaluable knowledge of language, culture, history, land, and family, while the non-indigenous worker contributes their professional expertise and skills in navigating non-indigenous systems and service delivery. The core idea behind Malparara is that by combining Anangu and non-indigenous cultural and professional knowledge, the best possible service is provided to the Anangu community—where "one plus one equals three."
