The chairman of Western Australia’s Indigenous Implementation Board has labelled a forum on Aboriginal issues in the Goldfields a success.
Indigenous leaders from across the region took part in the Goldfields conversation forum in Kalgoorlie-Boulder this week.
The two-day event was used to develop proposals to take to the State Government on issues such as health, education and environmental sustainability.
The chief executive of the Goldfields Land and Sea Council, Brian Wyatt, has welcomed chairman John Sanderson’s feedback.
“It went really well, a whole lot better than we’d hoped,” he said.
“This is the third now in a series of doing the entire state, we were told there were three more to come.
“He said that so far, to use his words, this was the best so far. So it was pleasing to hear that sort of feedback.”
