A key learning in the area of governance is the importance of good collaboration between the APS and the Australian Indigenous Psychologists Association (AIPA). This collaboration occurs across a range of key activities and initiatives, including conference programming, funded projects, reviews and external submissions.
AIPA also provided cultural awareness and responsiveness training for the APS Board and staff. This training has provided a foundation for continued commitment to culturally sensitive governance processes.
