This project is overseen by a Youth Advisory Group made up of Aboriginal LGBTQA+ young people, and a Governance Committee made up of respected Aboriginal LGBTQA+ figures in the local community.
The Governance Committee oversees the Walkern Katatdjin project design, procedures, data management, and translation of findings to ensure meaningful impacts from the project.
Members of the Youth Advisory Group guide the research design, recruitment, data analysis, reports and publications and data management.
