  • Response to a Path Forward: Developing the Western Australian Government’S Aboriginal Empowerment Strategy
    PO Box 7065 Cloisters Square WA 6850 (08) 9211 7681 www.cacwa.org.au [email protected] 27 February 2020 RESPONSE TO A PATH FORWARD: DEVELOPING THE WESTERN AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT’S ABORIGINAL EMPOWERMENT STRATEGY Thank you for the opportunity to submit comment on the Western Australian Government’s Aboriginal Empowerment Strategy. The Chamber of Arts and Culture WA is the State’s representative arts and culture body, providing an independent, unified voice for the sector in Western Australia. It has a membership of approximately 250 organisations and individuals including a number of Aboriginal arts and culture companies. These include Yirra Yaakin Theatre Company, Kimberley Aboriginal Law and Cultural Centre, Aboriginal Arts Centre Hub WA, Ochre Dance Company, Magabala Books and Madjitil Moorna Inc. We also have a number of collecting institutions, community or individual members involved in the delivery of Aboriginal arts programmes. We commend the whole of government approach and attempt to create a strategy that recognises the interrelated nature of many issues. We appreciate that this document attempts to set in place a set of principles and guiding framework that can be used consistently across different areas of government. As such, one of the most important things about this document is that it signals a new approach and a new set of processes that will guide the working methodology This will require a significant shift within the culture and systems of the organisations tasked with realising this strategy, if it is to be successfully realised. This challenge – to build understanding and respect for Indigenous cultures across the whole of our society is a key starting point.
