New NIAA Office in Port Augusta

We recently attended the official unveiling of the new NIAA headquarters in Port Augusta. The National Indigenous Australians Agency (NIAA) collaborates authentically to empower the self-governance and dreams of First Nations communities. Their efforts drive transformation throughout government to guarantee that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have a voice in decisions impacting them.

The inauguration of the new office included a smoking ceremony followed by a BBQ and was presided over by CEO Jody Broun, a Yinjibarndi woman from the Pilbara region in Western Australia, who assumed her role in February 2022.

The NIAA offers a wide range of services and resources, all of which you can read about on their website: https://www.niaa.gov.au/news-centre
