Establishment
Following an Expression of Interest process, an Indigenous Advisory Committee (IAC) is being established by the Wet Tropics Management Authority and Terrain NRM Boards to advise on strategic and operational priorities across the Wet Tropics Biocultural Region.
Expressions of Interest remain open for an additional female Rainforest Aboriginal person to join this skills-based committee.
Please direct any queries to Alicia Haines, Principal Project Officer at alicia.haines@wtma.qld.gov.au or 0448 592 683.

Background
The Wet Tropics Management Authority and Terrain NRM identified a critical need for a coordinated approach to ensure the rights, interests and priorities of Rainforest Aboriginal Peoples are included in the delivery of organisational plans, policies and programs at a strategic level.
The IAC is a skills-based committee. It is not expected to be representative and will not replace any existing committees. The Boards and the organisations will continue to engage with Rainforest Aboriginal Peoples on issues that matter to them as we do now.
