In contemporary Australian society, Aboriginal people face ongoing disadvantages. Investing in the highest level of Aboriginal cultural safety standards is essential for individuals, institutions and systems seeking to operate responsibly, inclusively, and successfully when employing, working alongside and engaging with Aboriginal people or whose products and services are directed towards or feature Aboriginal people, history and culture.
A proactive approach to building positive and sustainable partnerships with Aboriginal stakeholders contributes to legal compliance by ensuring alignment with Aboriginal rights and regulations, demonstrates a commitment to diversity and social responsibility, and enhances individuals and institutions reputations and credibility.
