South West Aboriginal Land and Sea Council

The South West Aboriginal Land and Sea Council is the organisation that represents the Noongar people, the Indigenous Australians of the southwest corner of Western Australia. It was formed in 2001,[1][2] and is incorporated under the Corporations (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander) Act.[3] The Council's primary role is to assist the Noongar people with native title claims and Indigenous land use agreements.[4] It also helps support Noongar culture and heritage,[4] and publishes the Kaartdijin Noongar ("Noongar Knowledge") website.[5]
