Merredin community information session

PURPOSE OF THE COMMUNITY INFORMATION SESSION

The South West Aboriginal Land and Sea Council Aboriginal Corporation (SWALSC) will convene community information sessions throughout the south west to provide information on the implementation of the Noongar settlement agreement.

These sessions will cover the agreement and transition process. Multiple meetings will be held for each of the six Noongar agreement group areas and you only need to attend one of the meetings.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

The Merredin community information session is open to all Noongar people who are connected to the Ballardong agreement group area, including those who are not members of SWALSC. You must only attend the community information sessions for the agreement group areas that you identify with.
