Thank you for your feedback on the Aboriginal Community Plan 'Bayikulinan' 2019-2023 (to act in the future).
The adopted plan launched at Council's NAIDOC celebrations July 2019 and is now being implemented.

Some of these actions include:
- Assisting in the preparation of Swansea Heads boardwalk;
- Working collaboratively to develop a new wing of the Lake Macquarie City Art Gallery dedicated to contemporary Aboriginal art;
- Extending interpretive signage and artwork along the Fernleigh Awabakal Shared Track;
- Continuing to fund cultural programs such as NAIDOC Week;
- Assisting in developing an Aboriginal Cultural Centre; and
- Advocating for ways to revive Aboriginal language and cultural practices.
