Guiding Principles

NATSIWA’s Vision will be achieved through our Guiding Principles that will remain cognizant of the needs, heath, wellbeing and development, and aspirations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Women.

  • Aboriginal strengths;
  • The need for cultural understanding;
  • The impact of racism and stigma;
  • Recognition of the centrality of kinship;
  • The impact of history in trauma and loss;
  • Recognition of different needs of communities;
  • The recognition of human rights and social justice;
  • Universal access to basic health care, housing and education; and
  • Equitable needs based funding.

Adopted from the National Aboriginal Health Strategy of 1989.

NATSIWA welcomes interest and support from both individual and/or professional organisations offering pro bono support.
