The CIS has publicly advocated for improving Indigenous Australians’ outcomes since 2004. Our work has spanned health, education, employment, housing, private property rights, criminal justice, and family violence and child protection reform and has had a direct impact on government thinking on Indigenous issues.

Our latest program is the Indigenous Forum whose key policy initiative is to focus on developing an entrepreneurial mindset and supporting the capability of indigenous businesses to drive economic participation in their communities.
