“Understanding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander heritage and culture and taking it to another level, is a key element to reconciliation. I believe in Reconciliation and the elements that positive leadership can provide.

I believe in the bringing together of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and Non- Indigenous Australians as we all deserve equal value, quality, and education.

I am a proud Kamilaroi woman and I believe in the respect of culture and heritage of all of our Indigenous communities and the need to keep cultural education current in the eyes of all. It’s a collective process that as Australians, we can all take a part in…”

-Julie Okely
