YWCA Adelaide Annual Report 2013-14 | Page 29

ABORIGINAL WOMEN’S LEADERSHIP PROGRAM Program content was informed by a “Yarning Group” of young women who formed a consultation and advisory group to ensure the content was appropriate and meaningful. 5 week workshops were then held at Tauondi College (Port Adelaide) and at Northern Connections (Elizabeth). At the conclusion of these workshops a community forum was held at Tauondi College which invited participants, their family and friends and community stakeholders along to workshop ideas around Aboriginal women’s leadership and celebrate the achievement of participants. Additional day workshops were also held in Port Lincoln (over 2 days) and in Adelaide’s southern region. The workshop in the south was aimed at high school students and was attended by representatives from 4 local schools.
