Expression of Interest Darebin Aboriginal Advisory Committee
As part of Council’s continued commitment to working in partnership with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, an Aboriginal Advisory Committee will be formed this year. The Darebin Aboriginal Advisory Committee will build on the contribution of DATSICC by progressing projects such as the planned installation of a Stolen Generations Monument at Northcote Town Hall, and implementation of an Indigenous Training Program to be based in Council.
The Darebin Aboriginal Advisory Committee will continue to strengthen connections between Council, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and the broader communities in Darebin, and will help establish Darebin’s first Aboriginal Action Plan.
Applications are now open for Aboriginal people to apply for membership to the Darebin Aboriginal Advisory Committee. Priority will be given to applicants who live, work or study in Darebin.
