Organised by

The Australian Indigenous Governance Institute 

We envision a future Australia where Indigenous nations can pursue and exercise their right to self-determination and economic development through strong self–governance. We know that practical, effective and culturally legitimate governance is the fundamental building block for delivering real change.

AIGI seeks to realise this change by assisting Indigenous nations—whether their members live in remote, rural or urban settings—in their efforts to determine and strengthen their own sustainable systems of self-governance.

We are passionate about working alongside Indigenous nations to develop their  communities, restore economic prosperity, improve the daily lives of their families, inspire the leadership of youth, and bring a renewed sense of cultural integrity and well-being to their people.
