IFACCA is pleased to be helping the Australia Council to distribute to national arts and culture funding bodies the world's first 'good practice' guides for working with Indigenous artists and Indigenous cultural materials. Launched by the Council's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Arts Board this week, the guides cover Indigenous cultural protocols and intellectual property rights in writing, song, new media, performing and visual cultures.
