National Centre of Indigenous Excellence

Strategic Overview

The National Centre of Indigenous Excellence (NCIE) in Redfern is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the ILC.

It has been established to promote Indigenous excellence and success nationally and in so doing improve the wellbeing of young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Under the direction of its own Board, the NCIE works with young Indigenous Australians from across the country to provide life-changing programmes in the pathways of arts and culture, learning and innovation, health and wellness and sport and recreation.

The EORA campus has a 110-bed accommodation wing, corporate conference facilities and a commercial kitchen. EORA Fitness has fully-equipped weights and cardio gyms, a sports field, a 25m heated outdoor pool and sports stadium. Since opening in 2010, the NCIE contributed to creating brighter futures for young Indigenous Australians by cultivating talent, enriching potential and creating opportunities. The NCIE works to shift the national conversation about Indigenous people away from the deficit language of disadvantage and towards a focus on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander excellence and innovation.
