Indigenous Land Corporation
The Indigenous Land Corporation (ILC) is a corporate Commonwealth entity established in 1995 to assist Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people acquire and manage land to achieve economic, environmental, social and cultural benefits.
The ILC has priority outcomes for achieving Indigenous benefits:
1) Access to and protection of cultural and environmental values: The ILC recognises the importance of land to Indigenous people's cultural identity. We are committed to assisting Indigenous people acquire and manage land of cultural and environmental significance, and to protecting and maintaining the cultural and environmental values of land.
2) Socioeconomic development: The ILC assists projects that deliver social and economic outcomes for Indigenous Australians. Priority is given to projects that provide sustainable employment and training that leads to employment. The ILC believes that sustained employment creates a range of benefits for Indigenous people, including increased standards of living, income and improved health and wellbeing.
By committing to these priorities, the ILC is helping to build a secure and sustainable Indigenous land base, now and for future generations.
