The Ngaanyatjarra Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Women's Council (NPY Women's Council, or NPYWC) is a community-based organisation that serves women of the Ngaanyatjarra, Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara communities in remote central Australia.
It was formed in 1980, with its headquarters in Alice Springs.
It provides a range of community, family, research and advocacy services, and represents the interests of women and their communities.
The idea for a women's organisation came during the late 1970s, when the Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara communities of northwestern South Australia were struggling for the rights to their land.
During meetings about land rights, the women felt that their needs were not being met, so they decided to establish their own organisation.
A women's meeting was held at Amaṯa in 1980.
It was chaired by Pitjantjatjara elder Nganyinytja, who had been a leader among women throughout the land-rights struggle.
The formation of the NPY Women's Council is said to have been partly inspired by a speech Nganyinytja made at demonstration in Adelaide later in the year.
The first meeting of the Women's Council was held in December 1980, in Kaṉpi.
It was organised by Mantatjara Wilson and Diana James, and attended by about 40 women.
Tjunmutja Myra Watson was chosen to be the organisation's first chairperson, and Diana James was chosen as the secretary.
The NPY Women Council's covers about 350,000 square kilometres of the remote area where the borders of Western Australia, South Australia and the Northern Territory meet.
The region has a total population of about 6000.
The council serves women belonging to the three indigenous groups in this region: the Ngaanyatjarra, Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara, who are closely related to one another.
The area covered includes:
Aṉangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands in South Australia
Ngaanyatjarra Lands (including the Shire of Ngaanyatjarraku and Kiwirrkura) in Western Australia
Imaṉpa, Muṯitjulu, Kaḻṯukatjara, Aputula and most of the Petermann Lands in the Northern Territory.
The NPY Women's Council has achieved recognition for its work.
Awards include:
Indigenous Governance Award (2012);
Deadly Awards were awarded to the Tjanpi Desert Weavers in 2012, and to the NPYWC Child Nutrition Program in 2011;
International Sigmund Freud Prize (2011), awarded to the  (traditional healer) program;
National Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Art Award (2005), awarded to the Tjanpi Desert Weavers.
Carl Orff (July 10, 1895 – March 29, 1982) was a German composer.
Today, he is perhaps best remembered for his work Carmina Burana.

In 1937, Carl Orff wrote the music for some of these texts.
His other well-known work, the Orff Schulwerk is aimed at teaching children about music.
Carl Orff received many awards for his works.
Amongst others he wrote "Reigen der Kinder", which was performed at the opening ceremony of the 1936 Summer Olympics.
He also adapted the music for A Midsummer Night's Dream, which was originally written by Felix Mendelssohn.
The problem was that Mendelsohn had Jewish roots, and the rulers of Germany at the time did not think this was suitable.
Orff was a close friend of Kurt Huber, a prominent oppoent of the regime.
Huber was a founding member of the opposition group White Rose.
Huber was tried and executed in 1943.

Universal Studios had held the production rights to Flash Gordon but allowed them to lapse.
Former Universal executives Edward Gruskin and Matty Fox struck a deal with Flash Gordon owners King Features Syndicate to produce the first 26 episodes of the series.
The series was produced by Gruskin and Wenzel Lüdecke.
Writers for Flash Gordon included Gruskin, Bruce Geller and Earl Markham.
Episodes were directed by Wallace Worsley, Jr. and Gunther von Fritsch.
Production began in May 1953, with an empty beer hall in Spandau as the main  shooting location.
Only the lead actors and director Worsley spoke English.
Worsley said: "No matter what galaxy we explored, everyone spoke with a German accent.
The use of German actors who could not speak English required us to use a lot of close-ups.
I would stand behind the camera, correctly positioned for the actor's look, and read his or her line; the actor would then repeat the line, mimicking my pronunciation and emphasis."
The series was budgeted at USD$15,000 per episode on a three-day-per-episode shooting schedule.
Worsley withdrew from the project after completing the first 26 episodes.
Production was moved to Marseille under the direction of Gunther von Fritsch for the 13 final episodes.

The job of the governor is to enforce state laws and to approve or veto bills passed by the Pennsylvania Legislature.
The governor may grant pardons except in cases of impeachment.
There have been seven presidents and 46 governors of Pennsylvania.
Two governors serving non-consecutive terms.
There have been a total of 55 terms in both offices.
The longest term was that of the first governor, Thomas Mifflin.
He served three full terms as governor and two years as president.
The shortest term belonged to John Bell.
He served only 19 days as acting governor after Edward Martin resigned.
The current governor is Tom Wolf.
His term began on January 20, 2015.
Pennsylvania was one of the first thirteen colonies.
It became a state on December 12, 1787.
The Presidents of the Supreme Executive Council
The first constitution in 1776 created the Supreme Executive Council as the executive branch.
The President was the leader of the  Council.
The president was picked each year by the council.
The 1776 constitution created the position of "vice-president" but it did not say what should happen if the president left office.
This happened four times.
Sources from that time still listed the chief executive as the vice president when that person acted as the president.
One acting president, George Bryan, has since been recognized as a governor.
This is because he acted as president for over six months.
Governors of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
The 1790 constitution ended the council.
It replaced the president with a governor, and created a three-year term for governor.
This term started on the third Tuesday of the December after the election.
A governors could not serve more than nine out of any twelve years.
The 1838 constitution moved the start of the term to the third Tuesday of the January after the election.
It allowed governors to only serve six out of any nine years.
The 1874 constitution lengthened the term to four years.
It said that governors could not succeed themselves (be elected to another term while still in office).
The current constitution of 1968 changed this to allow governors to serve two consecutive terms.
There are no limits on the number of terms a governor may serve in total as long as there is a four year break after a second term.
If the governor dies, resigns or is impeached, the lieutenant governor becomes governor for the rest of the term.
If the governor becomes unable to act as governor because of disability, the lieutenant governor only acts out the duties of governor.
Should both offices be vacant, the president pro tempore of the state senate becomes governor.
The position of lieutenant governor was created in the 1874 constitution.
Before this, the speaker of the senate would act as governor in cases of vacancy.
At first, the lieutenant governor could only act as governor.
It was not until the 1968 constitution that the lieutenant governor could actually become governor.
The office of governor has been vacant for an extended period of time once.
There was a 17-day time period in 1848 between the death of Francis R. Shunk and the swearing in of William F. Johnston.
, five former governors are alive.
The most recent death of a former governor was that of William Scranton (1963–1967), on July 28, 2013.

A Milliarium (plural milliaria) was a stone that was placed alongside Roman roads.
Such stones were used from about the 3rd century BC.
They marked the distance between two towns, and were placed at intervals of one Roman mile.
This was about 1000 milia passum, or .
In the celtic provinces, leagues are often used, these are 1500 milia passum, or about .
The name of the person or emperor who built or repaired the road, usually with all titles.
The distance between the starting point, and the point where the millarium was placed.
Some milliaria liste the distance to a larger settlement instead.
Even if they look like modern road signs showing the distance to given places, this was probably not the first function of these stone pillars.
What seems more likely is that they were used to show the power of the person who erected them; some were probably used for propaganda.
Very often, the inscription of the emperor was in Latin, but the inscription of the distance was in Greek.
The ordinary population could probably read the second part, but not the first.
Today between 7.000 and 8.000 such stones are known.
