The Barang Board

The first Board of Barang Regional Alliance was officially appointed in 2015.

The Board’s role is to provide direction and support to the Barang team, enabling them to drive organisational and systemic reform to create an empowered community where local Aboriginal people can enjoy the same health and socio-economic standards as non-Aboriginal people.

Acknowledgement

Barang Regional Alliance acknowledges and pays respect to our ancestors – those who have gone before us - those who have cared for and managed these lands, seas and waterways for generations.

We pay respect to the Darkinyung people, whose land we operate and function on. We recognise and acknowledge all Aboriginal people who have come from their own Country and who now call Darkinjung Land home.

We pay tribute to our Elders past and present - we acknowledge our youth and emerging leaders who are our future guardians of Country, culture, language, and truth.
