Moorditj Mag: Episode #184
Join Jim Morrison and Tony Hansen for a new edition of Moorditj Mag!
First Nations Aged Care Commissioner Andrea Kelly, from Warumungu and Larrakia mob, joins the show to discuss her report on transforming Elder care. Following the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety, which found that aged care for Indigenous Australians was culturally unsafe, Andrea Kelly connected with First Nations Elders, their families, carers, and service providers across Australia to find out about their experiences and desired outcomes regarding aged care. They discuss the challenges involved, and the importance of a holistic and community-focused approach to addressing the continued discrepancies in outcomes for Indigenous Elders.
While they’re unfortunately unable to get in contact with her for the interview, Jim and Tony also discuss singer and Gooniyandi and Walmatjarri Elder Kankawa Nagarra, formerly known as Olive Knight, and her upcoming free performance at the East Perth Power Station on March 1st (more information here), as well as her performance on April 10th at Clancy’s Fish Pub (tickets here).
Moorditj Mag airs live every Thursday on RTRFM 92.1 at 11am. You can also catch Moorditj Mag on 100.9fm Noongar Radio and Great Southern FM on Fridays.
