In supporting the development of the Aboriginal Cultural Centre, the State Government is working in partnership with Aboriginal people to ensure the planning for the centre is guided by a cultural authority framework.
An Aboriginal engagement strategy has also been developed to embed Aboriginal-led community engagement, cultural decision-making and governance in the development and ongoing operation of the Aboriginal Cultural Centre.
As the project moves into the project definition phase (Kambarang — Birth), engagement is planned to expand in both breadth and depth with communities across Western Australia.
This will be achieved through expansion of the project governance model, increased state-wide engagement and the establishment of partnerships with regional organisations with strong community and cultural connections.
This will provide an opportunity to update the wider Aboriginal community on progress of the project and to seek further feedback on the vision, functions and scope of the centre.
