Indigenous Affairs

Our team is dedicated to achieving positive outcomes with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. We are experienced in negotiating cultural sensitivities and dedicated to delivering best-practice engagements with diverse communities of all backgrounds.

Our credentials

The stakeholder engagement team is led by Simon Corrigan, a specialist in Aboriginal engagement and Indigenous Affairs. He has worked with traditional owners throughout WA and interstate. He is also experienced in navigating engagement surrounding native title and cultural heritage issues.

Engaging with Traditional Owners

Engaging with Traditional Owners is an important part of every business, not only for new projects requiring relevant approvals.

Our team is experienced in helping organisations build strong and lasting relationships with Aboriginal stakeholders. We never underestimate the importance of engaging early, authentically and clearly.

We provide support in the lead up to cultural heritage or Native Title negotiations, engaging with remote communities, and building strategies for engaging on contentious issues.

Supporting Indigenous organisations

In addition to providing Aboriginal engagement support to organisations, we also support Indigenous businesses with community relations, brand development, websites and other public relations services.

We are a partner and PR provider to the Noongar Chamber of Commerce and Industry. We have also worked with Indigenous organisations including:

• The Whadjuk Foundation (formerly, Perth Noongar Foundation) and subsidiary Bookitja Pty Ltd
• Noongar Land Enterprises
• MADALAH
• Cole Supplies

We can provide culturally sensitive strategic and operational support with all aspects of communication for your organisation.
