Overview
Strengthening sustainable
governance
Moving forward from Australia's adoption of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People (2009) and COAG's identification of the importance of 'Closing The Gap' targets (2008), how far have we come in translating both the intent and spirit of these commitments into real outcomes for Indigenous people?
Generating and sustaining Indigenous social and economic development outcomes remains a priority issue for which the nation is still developing policy and practical solutions.
Governance capacity has been identified by research and governments as a fundamental factor in generating sustained economic development and social outcomes. As such, successful governance for Indigenous communities and corporations is at the heart of Closing The Gap. It is crucial to understand how to build and support successful Indigenous corporations and learn from effective community programs.
This conference will share challenges, insights, better practice experiences and visions for the future of Indigenous governance. It will bring together local and international evidence based on case studies of successful partnerships and governance models, with particular emphasis on the elements that underpin the success of ongoing strategies and projects.
You will learn:
- Strategic approaches for creating sustainable corporate governance and capacity building
- Strategies for managing the right resources to maximise your corporate success
- Techniques for translating community governance lessons into successful service delivery models
- Methods for building strong partnerships through mutual accountability and cultural legitimacy
- Ways to measure the success of your governance frameworks
