Aboriginal Regional Authorities Initiative SA 2015 February - SA
Advice: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander viewers are advised that this website and videos links contains images and voices of people who have died.
In collaboration with the Ngarrindjeri Regional Authority, we produced Nation to Nation, a 25min documentary about the new South Australian Government Aboriginal Regional Authorities (ARA) initiative. The video showcases the benefits and opportunities of Aboriginal Regional Authorities in the context of colonization and new approaches for respectful governance and support for Indigenous representation in SA.
It features the four selected trial groups at their different stages of development and implementation:
Ngarrindjeri Regional Authority - Murraylands, Lower Lakes, Coorong and South Coast
Narungga Regional Authority - Yorke Penisula and surrounding islands
Kaurna Heritage Board - wider Adelaide area
Aboriginal Community Engagement Group Port Augusta and surrounding areas
The documentary features the views of Indigenous key leaders, detailing the process, development, and envisaged and current best practice and future outlook for each participating Aboriginal Authority, in Murray Bridge, Port Augusta, Point Pierce and Port Adelaide. Each trial group cover aspects of the five key issues and activities, ranging from Indigenous governance and leadership initiatives, Working on Country programs, to cultural engagement and Indigenous authority and self determination.
The project started development in October 2014, shooting across regional SA in 5 locations between November 2014 and January 2015.
