Reconciliation Victoria is proud to share The Leader Tapes, a series of interviews featuring prominent leaders in the Victorian Aboriginal community and produced by Victorian Aboriginal News (VAN).
The Victorian Aboriginal News (VAN) Leader Tapes is a project born of a passion to promote effective and respectful leadership with Victorian Aboriginal communities.
“Our goal is to provide a resource where emerging leaders can learn from leaders who have demonstrated their commitment to leading community and achieving in areas such as self-determination, truth-telling, education, treaty and community strength” says Uncle Charles Pakana, Chief of VAN.
The first episode in The Leader Tapes series features Uncle Bill Nicholson (Wurundjeri Woi-Wurrung) who speaks out about his passion to create change through education.
Watch the second episode with Aunty Geraldine Atkinson here.
Keep an eye on VAN’s website and Reconciliation Victoria’s eNews for new episodes.
We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of Country throughout Victoria, and recognise First Peoples continuing connection to lands, waters and community. We pay our respects to Elders past and present who carry the memories, traditions, cultures and aspirations of First Peoples, and who forge the path ahead for emerging leaders.
We dedicate ourselves to working respectfully with and guided by First Peoples, and to listen and amplify the voices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples in all areas of work
