About this Unit
This unit offers students the opportunity to explore the central role of leadership and alliances in building sustainable, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and other Indigenous, communities. The unit focuses on the three concepts/processes of leadership, alliance building and sustainability as integrated and interdependent. Unit content develops an understanding of the skills and knowledge underpinning each concept; and at the same time develops students’ skills in understanding how they operate together in building successful and long term communities.
