Another ATSIC? National workshops kick off on forming a new Indigenous representative body

The first in a series of National Indigenous Workshops was held in Adelaide today. The workshops will be rolled out across the country, gathering together 100 prominent Indigenous men and women, in equal numbers and from a wide range of ages and communities, to discuss the possibility of putting together a new National Indigenous Representative Body. So how will this body be different to the now defunct ATSIC?

Speakers:

• Former ATSIC Commissioner
• Jenny Macklin
• Klynton Wanganeen and Minister for Indigenous Affairs
