Please note the start time is 12.30pm. A light lunch will be provided on arrival.

The Aboriginal Caucus is an essential opportunity for people working in the Aboriginal community housing sector, in particular CEOs and managers working in the sector. International speaker Rosanna McGregor Cariboo, Friendship Society, British Columbia, Canada will speak about the Canadian Indigenous Housing sector, drawing comparisons to the Australian experience and providing practice advice on how those in the sector can maximise their impact and be agents for change.

The Caucus will feature a workshop session outlining the sector’s view on housing and homelessness priorities and making detailed recommendations to feed in to Aboriginal Housing Office’s strategy.

The Caucus will also serve as the platform to launch the next phase of the sector’s industry body – the Aboriginal Community Housing Industry Association or ACHIA for short – providing an overview of activities to date, accountability within the sector and the plans and priorities for ACHIA moving forward.

Finally, Charles Northcote will provide experiences from New Zealand and BlueCHP in making property development work for Aboriginal communities using examples and exploring the pitfalls.

This informative event is a must for all those working in the Aboriginal Community Housing Sector. Don’t miss out on your place.
