Virtual Format | Wednesday, 26 June 2024 | 9:30am-5:30pm
Explore Indigenous governance, and the structures, systems, and processes by which different First Nations peoples have framed leadership, culture, social and economic practice, and decision-making in the Indigenous Governance Forum.
Key discussions for 2024
This year we will look at Indigenous governance systems that are core to self-determination, nation building and sustainability.
- How we frame program design with self-determination, engagement and community led decision-making
- How we advance self-determination for young Indigenous people through dedicated community infrastructure driven by community governance practices
- How connection and belonging can frame the strategy for a healthy, thriving community
- How the knowledge and partnership of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people is integral to all of Australia’s sustainability plans and actions – management, response, and recovery for current and future disasters.
