Personal Narrative: Aboriginal And Torres Strait Islanders In Australia

I have worked with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders in Alice Springs, Weipa, Innisfail, Broome and Adelaide. I am a current member of the Reconciliation Advisory Committee for the Campbelltown City Council and passionately believe that reconciliation is the responsibility of every Australian. I have over sixteen-years experience working directly with culturally and linguistically diverse community members and have gained a sound understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander history and culture. I possess excellent management, community engagement, research and communication skills and strongly believe the experiences I have gained from previous work roles, along with my desire to advocate reconciliation, makes me perfectly suited
to this position.
