NSWALC is committed to ensuring a better future for Aboriginal people by working for the return of culturally significant and economically viable land, pursuing cultural, social and economic independence for its people and being politically proactive and voicing the position of Aboriginal people on issues that affect them.
National Indigenous Australians Agency
The National Indigenous Australians Agency (NIAA) is a Commonwealth Government agency working to ensure First Nations communities are heard, recognised and empowered. We support the Minister for Indigenous Australians to implement the Australian Government’s priorities.
We achieve this by working in genuine partnership to enable the self-determination and aspirations of First Nations communities; removing barriers to ensure full and equal participation in the social and economic life of Australia. We lead and influence change across government to ensure Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have a say in the decisions that affect them.
We recognise that the only way to Close the Gap is when First Nations Australians, own, commit to and drive the outcomes sought, alongside all governments.
We partner with First Nations communities, peak bodies, governments, and service providers to make a difference in people’s lives. We do this through providing support for the delivery of key community initiatives such as the NSW Koori Knockout to enable Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to continue to access an event that promotes culture, identity and well-being through engagement with sport as well as social and cultural connection.
We have staff across Australia, including in New South Wales on Wiradjuri country and work closely with communities to address their specific needs.
We have been a proud supporter of NSW Koori Knockout since the agency’s establishment in 2019.
