LGANT is proud to launch our second Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP), reaffirming our commitment to reconciliation through meaningful action, stronger relationships, and creating opportunities across local government in the Northern Territory.
The RAP was developed by the LGANT RAP Working Group, made up of LGANT RAP Champion and Mayor of West Arnhem Regional Council James Woods, Mayor of the Tiwi Islands Regional Council Lynette De Santis, and LGANT President and City of Darwin Councillor Peter Pangquee.
This RAP reflects our ongoing commitment to working alongside Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and embedding reconciliation into the way we work as representatives of councils and communities across the Territory.
James Woods shared:
"As a long-standing LGANT Board member, and the LGANT RAP Champion, I'm proud to launch our second Reflect RAP.
This RAP represents the contribution we continue to make as representatives of councils and communities across the Northern Territory. With insight into regional, municipal and remote communities, our RAP Working Group intends to champion all corners of the Territory ā sharing positive stories, increasing opportunities for Aboriginal people in the ways councils can, and delivering real change through partnerships and relationship-building.
We treat reconciliation as something ongoing that underlies all the work we do at LGANT, rather than an end goal. This RAP is a framework that demonstrates a small part of what we intend to deliver as an organisation."
