First Nations Member Priorities Survey
We want to hear directly from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander members about what matters most to you. The AAPW is committed to strengthening the voice, visibility and influence of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander lived experience and peer workers.
This survey will help the AAPW understand how we can better support, connect with and advocate alongside First Nations lived experience and peer workers.
Your feedback will help inform a First Nations engagement strategy and shape our future activities, networks, leadership and engagement opportunities, and advocacy priorities, so that they reflect the voices and expertise of our members. Outcomes from this survey will be shared with First Nations members once priorities have been determined.
Survey opened: 11 November 2026, 9am AEDT
Survey closes: 14 December 2026, 5pm AEDT
This survey is for 'full' and 'student' members who identify as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander.
About the Survey
Your responses will help inform the AAPW’s advocacy priorities and may be used in publications outlining the AAPW’s advocacy positions. The survey is anonymous and does not ask for personal information. Please avoid including names, contact details or other information that could identify you or anyone else. Any identifying information supplied will be excluded from analysis and publications.
Participation is voluntary. By taking the survey, you confirm that you understand its purpose and agree to your responses being used as described above.
The survey should take approximately 10 to 15 minutes to complete. You do not need to finish it in one sitting. Your progress can be saved, so you can return and complete the survey later if needed.
We encourage you to answer as openly and honestly as possible. Responses will be reviewed collectively and treated confidentially.
Thank you for participating; First Nations lived experience and expertise belong at the centre of our work.
