| Wayne Coolwell (Chairperson) |
Wayne Coolwell is of Aboriginal heritage and has spent most of his working life in communications and the media. His traditional country is the Beaudesert/Mt Tamborine region of south east Queensland.
Wayne spent 15 years working as a sports journalist and broadcaster in radio and television for the ABC in Brisbane and Darwin, as well as presenting and producing the national indigenous news and cultural affairs program “Speaking Out”.
Since leaving the ABC in 1999, Wayne has worked as a freelance consultant on a range of government and private initiatives.
For the past 15 years Wayne has been actively involved with indigenous arts and cultural activities, as a practitioner and as an advocate on government steering parties and committees.
Wayne’s current focus is to produce initiatives and incentives for the Aboriginal community which will provide for economic independence and self-empowerment.
He hopes these goals and ambitions will generate greater self-belief and purpose within the Aboriginal community to enable its members to move forward without a complete reliance on government agencies for support.
