A free one-day online forum for illumination, inspiration and action.
In partnership with Loomio*, the Registrar of Indigenous Corporations invites members and directors of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander corporations to an engaging forum designed to elevate your board's capability and knowledge.
The focus will be governance challenges—and success—in Indigenous contexts in Australia and beyond.
This is a rare opportunity to join in a practical cross-cultural exchange of governance knowledge and expertise, and we are lining up a great list of keynote speakers, presenters and workshops for this very special event.
To join in, register ASAP. We hope to see you there! (And if it turns out you are unable to attend, please let us know.)
Host
Master of ceremonies (MC) for the day: veteran journalist and acclaimed author Stan Grant.

- The current state of Indigenous governance—where are we at? What are the challenges?
- The director mindset and setting up for success—women, young people, effective corporate culture
