Company Description
Founded in 2014 by Ashoup Atar, Kowanj Australasia is a community focused employment and education organization and recruitment agency dedicated to removing barriers that new migrants, refugees, and multicultural communities face when accessing work, training, and a sense of belonging in Australia. Kowanj means help or assist in Dinka, and that purpose guides a culturally informed model built on early intervention, peer leadership, and multi sector partnerships. From its base in Victoria, the charity has supported more than 3,000 people across programs in Australia, South Sudan, Kenya, and Egypt by addressing root causes of disadvantage such as long term unemployment, social isolation, trauma, and systemic exclusion. For employers, Kowanj provides tailored recruitment solutions that emphasize cultural fit alongside skills, delivering caring, job ready talent for high demand areas including childcare, aged care, and disability support. For job seekers, Kowanj integrates Ready For Work training, accredited courses, English language programs, counseling, and career coaching to build confidence and create clear pathways into sustainable roles. Collaborations with community leaders, employers, RTOs, TAFEs, local councils, and government ensure learning translates into real job outcomes and advancement. The organization and its team of staff and volunteers, many with lived experience, foster trust and inclusion where mainstream systems often struggle to connect. Recognized with the Victorian Multicultural Award for Excellence in Education, Kowanj strengthens social infrastructure by promoting economic participation, community cohesion, and self reliance. Whether helping an employer build an inclusive workforce or guiding a candidate to unlock potential and transition into meaningful work, Kowanj brings a passion to care and the ability to deliver across recruitment and training services, creating measurable social and economic impact for families and communities.
