ABORIGINAL WOMEN’S LEADERSHIP
PROGRAM
The “Yarning Group” designed and implemented a program name and
logo in the consultation stage. The program was branded “Kangaroos and
Emus” and the logo was representative of participant’s notion of leadership.
“The yellow centre represents the community. The red heart represents us all
as strong women and the core heart of our business. The emu, kangaroo
and human tracks leading outwards represents the notion that leadership is
about moving forward and not backwards.”
Thanks to Program Coordinator Lisa Warner for her hard work and
dedication this year. Lisa came on board in November 2013 and has taken
the program from strength to strength in a very short period of time which is
a testament to her commitment to the program and to the development of
leadership in Aboriginal women.
The Aboriginal Women’s Leadership Program (Kangaroos and Emus) is
funded by the Department for Prime Minister and Cabinet through the
Indigenous Capacity and Development program.
