2015 National Indigenous Men’s and Women’s Network Conference
The conferences are hosted by Indigenous Conference Services (Australia) with a great line up of speakers from around Australia. The aim is to provide a platform for Indigenous Men and Women to celebrate their achievements in life within their home, family, community and workplace.
The event will focus on empowerment, strong leadership and self-determination. Throughout the two and a half day event, we will be facilitating small group discussions with informative Guest Speakers. The event emphasizes the positives of Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander resilience and determination to strive for a better tomorrow without the constraints of the negative stereotyping which is more prevalent due to social media and bad media coverage.
Today’s society is plagued with stories of all the wrong in our communities when in fact nothing could be further from the truth. For years as Indigenous men and women, we have strived to better our communities and families which have given rise to countless numbers of great initiatives and as such one of the ways to highlight these great achievements is to share this knowledge which has always been our cultural way. As such, we feel that it is time to start promoting these ideas so that others may be able to share and spread the knowledge.
