About AIATSIS

We recognise that our staff and volunteers are our most valuable asset. We employ a skilled and diverse workforce and particularly encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to consider working with us.

Ngurra: The National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Cultural Precinct will be nationally significant in speaking to the central place that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples hold in Australia’s story.

We’re opening a new Alice Springs facility in partnership with First Nations Media Australia.

The Council and Executive of AIATSIS share a determination to be part of helping all Australians reimagine what it means to be Australian and to forge a national identity that embraces and celebrates the unique cultures of Australia’s First Peoples.

The history of AIATSIS is as much a history of the changing relationship between Australia’s First Peoples and the Australian nation. It’s a history that spans sixty years of political and social transformation led mainly by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and allies.
