Length: 1200 words Submission method options: EASTS (online) Task Your final assessment task for IKC101 requires you to consider your previous learning across each module of the subject. Each assessment task has asked you to reflect on, and critically analyse specific elements of your standpoint through your engagement with the learning activities: that is, the social, institutional, and historical factors and forces that influence knowledge. For this task you will take the role of an individual applying to lead the project described for the organisation you have selected from the options below. Choose one organisation only: Organisation Project Description Business - Supply Nation was established in 2009 and "works with partners, members, Certified Suppliers, and Registered Businesses to achieve its vision of a prosperous, vibrant and sustainable Indigenous enterprise sector." Our company aims to secure a contract with Qantas to provide locally sourced bush tucker for all of their regional flights within NSW. We are a well–established brand who currently supply catering items to businesses throughout NSW, Victoria and the ACT. We will consult and work with local Indigenous communities, businesses and entrepreneurs to enable this vision to be realised in a respectful and sustainable way. We are recruiting a project officer to lead this initiative. Graphic design and advertising - Gilimbaa are "a full service creative agency specialising in strategic and connected communication. [They] are driven by the power and process of storytelling and the role this plays in the education and celebration of culture and community."

Performing Arts - Bangarra "is an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisation and one of Australia’s leading performing arts companies, widely acclaimed nationally and around the world for ... powerful dancing, distinctive theatrical voice and utterly unique soundscapes, music and design." The Indigenous Dance Project aims to provide Wiradjuri secondary students with the opportunity to participate in an arts and cultural program that develops professional pathways for young people, and strengthens their connections with local community and peers. Students will receive artistic mentorship in dance, cultural knowledge and performance skills. It will be led by accomplished contemporary Indigenous dancers from Bangarra. We are recruiting a project officer to lead this initiative. Education - The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Independent School was “established in 1986 with an aim to promote the development of Indigenous students as independent and skilled people who are culturally, morally and socially responsible, employable, and capable of self-fulfilment and of contributing to society.” Yungartilla is a newly accredited independent K-12 school on the NSW north-coast region that is implementing an initiative to encourage high level engagement between Indigenous parents and Yungartilla teachers. Twelve out of the 15 teachers employed by the school are non-Indigenous and comprise eight (8) new graduates and four (4) highly experienced teachers. The aim of the project is to establish a mutual channel so that Indigenous students of the school receive culturally relevant curriculum, and to build trust and rapport between parents and teachers. We are recruiting a project officer to lead this initiative. Science - The Nimmie-Caira Project is a "significant water saving project for NSW ... aims to balance the environmental and Aboriginal cultural heritage protection with commercial use so as to create an asset for the local community and the Murray-Darling Basin". Our organisation is recruiting a lead project officer who will work collaboratively with key stakeholders focusing on the Long Term Land Management Plan component of the project. We are recruiting a project officer to lead this initiative. Health - The National Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation (NACCHO) is "the national peak body for Aboriginal health. In 1997, the Federal Government funded NACCHO to establish a Secretariat in Canberra [this] increased the capacity of Aboriginal Peoples involved in [Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Services] to participate in national health policy development". In order to close the gap in life expectancy between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people in Australia, a pilot program has been established. This program will employ Indigenous Community Health workers in targeted locations across Australia. The Community Health workers will be responsible for developing and maintaining relationships with the local community they are working in and for, in order to facilitate improved health outcomes for that community. We are recruiting a project officer to lead this initiative. Social work / Social Welfare - Uniting Burnside "offers a range of short and long-term care options for young people, including foster care, guardianship and adoption."

Agricultural Science/Veterinary Science/Equine Science -Kimberley Agricultural and Pastoral Company (KAPCO) in Western Australia is a major player in northern Australia’s cattle industry and has just taken over Myroodah Station near Fitzroy Crossing. KAPCO is owned by a syndicate of traditional owner groups in the Kimberley region. Since securing Myroodah Station KAPCO has increased the herd with the aim to continue creating meaningful employment and training pathways on Country for remote communities in the region. KAPCO has also recently been approved to irrigate fodder crops on Frazier Downs Station near Broome and is therefore working towards land development. This development will allow KAPCO to grow and breed cattle on other properties and bring them to Frazier Downs for high-quality fodder to fatten them and finish them off close to Broome Port ready for live export. To muster cattle KAPCO mainly uses horses from its own horse breeding and training program. Traditional owners live and work on these stations. KAPCO is looking to employ a team to support this expansion and seek the skills of those with qualifications in agricultural science, veterinary science, and equine science. We are recruiting three project officers to support this initiative: 1x Agricultural Scientist; 1x Veterinary Scientist; and 1x Equine Scientist.

We are looking for creatives and media professionals to work on the second chapter of Reconciling Australia. The first chapter was the Artspace exhibition Just Not Australian that explored ideas about being Australian and what it means to be un-Australian. The show featured works by a range of Indigenous and non-Indigenous artists. This next show will focus on communicating and show-casing unacknowledged aspects of Australian national identity and its significance for a reconciled Australia.

A critical part of the project is to work with local Indigenous community or groups to build connections to interpret and respond to their needs. You will complete an EoI - Project Officer in three sections. You must support your EoI with evidence from your sources, using APA (6th ed.) referencing. Section 1. Explain your professional standpoint as it applies to your cultural competence. (300 words) Section 2. Describe the social, institutional, and historical factors relevant to the project.

This assessment task will assess the following learning outcome/s: be able to refine, review, relate and map new knowledge and understandings to demonstrate ethical professional practice, and to explore principles for respectful partnerships with Indigenous communities. This task is a summative assessment item and requires you to demonstrate your comprehension of IKC101 LOs 1-5 to meet the following outcome: be able to refine, review, relate and map new knowledge and understandings to demonstrate ethical professional practice, and to explore principles for respectful partnerships with Indigenous communities. In Tasks 1, 2 & 3 you critically reflected on the factors and forces that influence, reproduce, and reinforce particular forms of knowledge about Indigenous Australians and yourself as part of Australian society. You considered what knowledge can be taken-for-granted because of this reinforcement by institutions, using the media as one example of a powerful socialising institution. You provided a critical analysis of available historical and contemporary evidence to deepen your understanding of the forces influencing contemporary understandings about, and contemporary experiences of Indigenous Australians. In Task 4 you are required to apply what you have learned through the IKC101 Modules and after completion of Tasks 1 - 3 to consider your professional responsibilities, your potential contribution to Yindyamarra Winchenbach, and to apply principles for engagement with Indigenous communities to facilitate these.
