Future focused
After being on the Goldfields-Esperance Development Commission's board for more than four years, Gail was appointed chairperson in August 2018. She is also currently chairperson of the Esperance Tjaltjraak Native Title Aboriginal Corporation and South East Aboriginal and joined the Horizon Power Board in November 2018.
Over the past 20 years our elders have worked hard to secure our future through a Native Title determination. This historic event has meant that we have now been handed the role to continue to strive for both for ourselves and for others and uphold the commitment to build an economically sustainable future for our families, our people and our community.
Our organisation is built from the strength and dedication of our families, who have the vision of a united community and that is prepared to have the difficult conversations that has allowed us to become the organisation that we are today. Our second and current strategic plan represents the key goals and aspirations of our people and our community who want an organisation that represents all Nyungar families in Esperance.
I am proud to be the chairperson for this organisation, a position that I have held since our inauguration. I am proud for what we have achieved to date and what we will continue to achieve into the future. We will continue to engage with our community, listen to their aspirations for our people, and ensure that what we do makes a difference for our community, children and all future generations.
I am also excited to be part of a community that see ETNTAC as the entity that can bring their aspirations and goals to fruition through the 2019 – 2022 Strategic Plan.
