Valerie Martin
Ms Martin is an interpreter with many other roles: chair of the Pintupi Anmatyerr Warlpiri Media, deputy chair of the Aboriginal Areas Protection Authority, director of the Kurra and the Yapa Kurlangu Ngurrara Aboriginal corporations and member of Yuendumu’s Granites Mine Affected Areas Aboriginal Corporation committee.
“I wear a few hats. I love working with my people and to know what’s ahead of them, especially the young people. I go and visit them in juvenile centres.”Ms Martin has been a CLC delegate in the past and wants to mentor new delegates. She plans to pursue justice reform through the council because recent events have shown that “in the end we don’t get justice”.“I want younger people to realise what is happening around town, change their behaviour and follow in our footsteps. Take responsibility.”
Warren Williams
Chair of the CLC, deputy president of the Central Desert Regional Council, former chair of the Warlpiri Youth Development and Yapa Kurlangu Ngurrara Aboriginal corporations, the Southern Tanami Kurdiji Mediation team and Yuendumu’s local authority. Mr Williams is a former assistant principal at the Yuendumu school and wants to advocate for community harmony and young people.
“We get them out to Mount Theo [outstation] where they learn their culture,” he said. “We’ve been asking for a school there for a very long time because they also need to learn to read and write.”
