The project has seen a phenomenal response from people who have initially rallied to support Timor-Leste following the violence in 2000, and those who have heard the story more recently. It is part of a growing determination by the people of Australia to see the country through the difficult first few years of establishing itself as a nation.

The design and documentation of the project was possible through the generous pro bono contributions volunteered by leading consultancy firms.
