Rooted in Country, Driven by Capability
Jiriwung Pty Ltd was born from a vision to bridge the gap between traditional wisdom and modern professional practice. As an Aboriginal woman-led consultancy with over 25 years of experience, our Director has navigated the complex landscapes of Aboriginal Affairs, education, and government systems to build a firm that prioritises cultural integrity above all else. We are a Supply Nation registered Aboriginal consultancy and a proud Aboriginal-Owned Consultancy in Australia, committed to delivering high-impact results that honor Country, Culture, and Community.
We recognise that true progress is only possible when projects are respectful and defensible. We function as a culturally safe and compliant Aboriginal consultancy, ensuring that our partners, from local councils to state departments—engage with Aboriginal Communities in a way that is ethical and sustainable.
Our Commitment to Community
As an Aboriginal-led consultancy with ICIP governance and Aboriginal Community governance advisory expertise, we ensure that every project is community-led. We serve as an ethical Aboriginal engagement consultancy, building relationships on trust and respect. By choosing Jiriwung, you are choosing an Aboriginal consultancy with ICIP and data governance expertise that guarantees your projects are grounded in the sovereignty and dignity of First Nations people.
What We Do
Excellence in Culturally Governed Advisory
Our work sits at the critical intersection of Country, Culture, and Capability. As an Aborigina-led governance consultancy, we provide a comprehensive suite of Aboriginal advisory services in NSW and across Australia, specialising in moving beyond “tick-a-box” engagement toward embedded Aboriginal partnerships.
Specialised Governance and Data Sovereignty
We are a leading Indigenous Cultural and Intellectual Property (ICIP) consultancy. We help organisations navigate the vital question: Who owns cultural Knowledge in Aboriginal projects?. Through ICIP-informed consulting and ICIP governance advisory, we mitigate risks and ensure ethical Aboriginal Knowledge sharing without cultural extraction.
Furthermore, Jiriwung is a premier provider of Indigenous Data Sovereignty consulting in Australia. We offer Aboriginal data governance advisory and Indigenous data ethics consultancy to help clients develop Aboriginal-controlled data systems that protect the rights and heritage of the Communities they serve.
Strategic Planning and Project Delivery
Our team acts as an Aboriginal strategic planning consultancy, delivering culturally governed advisory services that reflect local Aboriginal Knowledge and regional contexts. Whether through an Aboriginal project management consultancy framework or Aboriginal-led program delivery, we provide procurement-ready Aboriginal consulting services that meet the highest professional standards.
Education and Cultural Capacity Building
Jiriwung is deeply committed to Aboriginal cultural capability building. We provide cultural capacity building for organisations and Aboriginal-led professional development to help teams strengthen their understanding of Aboriginal culture.
Our specialised Aboriginal education consultancy supports schools and authorities through:
- Aboriginal curriculum advisory and Aboriginal Languages, Cultures and Histories education.
- Indigenous Knowledge education services that bridge the gap between Community expertise and academic practice.
- High-level Aboriginal policy advisory services for curriculum and education initiatives.
