Barang Regional Alliance Ltd (Barang) is a not-for-profit Aboriginal organisation supporting the empowerment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people on Darkinjung Land in the Central Coast of NSW, The word Barang means ‘Tomorrow’ in the Darkinjung language. We advocate to reform current thinking, systems and processes to deliver more effective service delivery outcomes and accountability to the Central Coast Aboriginal community. We achieve this through our participation in the innovative Commonwealth Government Empowered Communities (EC) initiative which is being piloted in regions across Australia. The National Indigenous Australians Agency and NSW Aboriginal Affairs provides funding to Barang to lead the design and delivery of this major Aboriginal reform agenda. Barang is also supported through our participation in the NSW Government ‘Local Decision Making’ (LDM) initiative which aims to increase local Aboriginal involvement and decision making in the services being delivered to the community by NSW Government service providers.
