New Aboriginal Community Advisors wanted

Filed in Just In by July 28, 2021

FIFTEEN new positions have opened up on the Hunter Local Land Services Aboriginal Community Advisory Group (ACAG), which meets twice a year and works on a number of key issues relating to Natural Resources Management, Sustainable Agriculture, Biosecurity and Emergency Management preparedness in the Hunter.

The Group was first formed in 2014 and is looking for members for the next two years.

Aboriginal people actively involved in the Hunter community, who have a passion in cultural land management, cultural awareness and Aboriginal employment opportunities are encouraged to apply.

Hunter Local Land Services Board Chair Tony Hegarty, said the current ACAG members have achieved a lot and the Board and staff are thankful for their efforts.

“The group has forged strong partnerships in our region between the LALCs, training partners, community groups and land managers, which have helped increase awareness of the Cultural Heritage of our region and the commitment to enhance our local landscapes,” said Mr Hegarty.

“We are very grateful for all their efforts guiding Hunter Local Land Services staff and our Board and providing community feedback and I look forward to working with the members of the new board in the future to continue this partnership,” he said.

Expressions of Interest are now open for new members to come forward for the next two-year term.
