Legislation To Guide Practices Around Aboriginal Culutral Safety Issues

Post by LauraMae » Tue Sep 13, 2016 4:27 pm

Hi!

My question is this:
What specific legislation do you need to be aware of that will guide your practices around Aboriginal cultural safety issues?

I have the EYLF Outcomes 1 and 2 (specifically) and others to add, and the Stronger Futures Policy, but I am stumped for the rest. I could really use some help please.

Thanks in advance!

For your response you are moving towards the EYLF rather than a specific legislation.

Cultural Safety: the outcome of interactions where individuals experience their cultural identity and way of being as having been respected or, at least, not challenged or harmed.

Ref: Culutral Safety

The following is a legislation for ATSI community which may help:

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Act 2005
