In this post-election episode of Kids, Culture, Community – SNAICC Yarns, Mandy Taylor has an in-person conversation with SNAICC CEO Catherine Liddle on the lands of the Wurundjeri people in Narrm. Against the backdrop of the federal election, Mandy and Catherine share candid insights about the emotional toll of the federal election period and the unexpected optimism that has emerged from election night.Together, they discuss the implications of the re-elected Labor Government's commitments to Closing the Gap, the importance of keeping children safe and connected to culture and the role of early childhood education in ensuring Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children thrive in culture. Catherine shares personal anecdotes about how the election narrative affected Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, families and communities, as well as where the next steps will take us, particularly in prioritising Safe and Supported policies and commitments to keeping children safe in their own homes and stopping the flow of children into child detention and out-of-home care.Keep the conversation going—follow, subscribe, and share this podcast to help amplify the voices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, families, and communities.
