Welcome to Murri Binda

The Murri Binda Consortium is a collective of seven founding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Community Controlled Organisations, working together to strengthen the health and wellbeing of our people across the Murri Binda catchment, including Rockhampton, Gladstone, Woorabinda, the Central Highlands, the Central West, and surrounding areas.

Our Purpose

We represent the needs and interests of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health and human services sector, ensuring our communities have a strong and unified voice.

Community-Led Priorities

We are committed to creating localised, place-based approaches that ensure Traditional Owners and community members shape our priorities and direction.

Strategic Partnerships

Our work includes building strong partnerships with education, legal, employment, and training providers to enhance opportunities and outcomes for our people.

Policy and Practice Engagement

We actively engage with our communities to inform policies, influence practice, and support meaningful evaluation of services and programs.

Cultural Safety and Service Quality

We strive to improve the cultural safety, quality, and accessibility of services for all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in our region.

Collaboration and Knowledge Sharing

Our Consortium fosters collaboration, connection, and the sharing of knowledge and best practices among our member services.

Supporting Vulnerable Community Members

We are dedicated to responding to the needs of our most vulnerable, ensuring no one is left behind.

Innovation in Service Delivery

We encourage and support innovation in how services are designed and delivered, placing community voices at the centre.

Workforce Development

We focus on developing and retaining a strong, culturally capable workforce that reflects and respects our communities.

Coordinated Funding

We coordinate funding efforts to maximise impact and benefit for all member organisations.

Murri Binda is committed to unity and respect.

We will not undertake any activity that competes with, disadvantages, or diminishes the operations or reputations of our member organisations.

Together, we are stronger.
