The transport and planning portfolio (the portfolio) is committed to building and maintaining meaningful partnerships with Traditional Owners and the First Peoples Community. The portfolio is committed to embedding First Peoples self determination through its Transport Portfolio Aboriginal Self-Determination Plan 2020-2023 (Plan).
The Plan outlines how the portfolio will transform its systems and processes to enable Traditional Owners and First Peoples communities to realise their aspirations for transport.
The Plan incorporates 11 key actions that respond to the overarching commitments set out in the Victorian Aboriginal Affairs Framework 2018-2023 (VAAF) and covers the four Self Determination Reform Framework (SRDF) domains which are People, Systems, Outcomes and Accountability.
The First Peoples Self Determination and Reform Division (FPSDR) has a key responsibility to advise and facilitate self determination reform across transport and planning and the delivery of the 11 actions that underpin the Plan.
FPSDR provides leadership, culturally sound advice, and strategic direction to guide and empower staff to genuinely partner and meaningfully engage with Traditional Owners and the First Peoples Community across the portfolio.
