Communities

Each unique Ngaanyatjarra community, governed autonomously, shapes its own social and economic future, preserving its rich culture and identity.

The Independent Governance of Ngaanyatjarra Communities

Each of the Ngaanyatjarra Communities is an autonomous, separately incorporated Body (an Association) incorporated under either a Commonwealth Act (The Aboriginal Councils and Associations Act 1976) or a Western Australian State Government Act (The Associations Incorporations Act 1895 – 1969)

Incorporation of each of their Community organisations empowers the Ngaanyatjarra people, through their Board, to make their own social and economic planning decisions for meeting current needs and for future developments.
