Value for Money or Missing the Point? 

Procurement, Prior and Informed Consent, and Culturally Intelligent Engagement.

Unlocking True Value in Indigenous

Procurement Many organisations proudly commit to Indigenous engagement, but stumble when it comes to procurement. Too often, vague scopes, cost-driven evaluations, and lack of cultural understanding lead to missed opportunities, reputational risks, and broken trust. 

This interactive masterclass will unpack real-world case studies where procurement failed to live up to commitments — and show you how to get it right. You’ll learn what Free, Prior and Informed Consent really means, why “value for money” must include cultural intelligence, and the practical steps your organisation can take to prepare for Indigenous procurement success.

Through discussion, scenarios, and hands-on exercises, you’ll leave with tools, templates, and confidence to embed impact-based procurement that aligns with your values, strengthens partnerships, and delivers lasting outcomes.
