Council of First Nations

Indigenous organisations from across the country will come together in September to consider the creation of a new national body dedicated to advancing the interests of First Peoples.

The National Gathering will take place in Port Douglas, Queensland, from September 15 to 17. It is open to Native Title and other First Nations representative organisations with a connection to Country and recognised cultural authority.

Decisions will be made by broad consensus, with a Council of First Nations, who will provide a critical organising capacity, having been formed to organise the event. More information
