Thank you for your involvement in the ILSC’s largest ever effort to listen to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people’s aspirations for Country. Your invaluable contributions will help shape the National Indigenous Land and Sea Strategy (NILSS) and the ILSC’s strategic direction for the next 5 years.

The community consultation report has now been released and we are excited to share what we heard across the country.

The report shines a light on the key themes identified from the community consultation, which cover aspirations related to returning Country, managing Country and sector leadership, and the desired role of the ILSC.

We are also pleased to release the NILSS outline for comment. The outline offers a glimpse into the future of the ILSC by sharing early insights into the upcoming NILSS. You will be able to have your say on the NILSS outline until Friday 24 February 2023.
