indigenous code of conduct

**** NEW ETHICAL RULES FOR AUSTRALIAN INDIGENOUS ART

The National Association for the Visual Arts (NAVA) has begun work on a new Indigenous Commercial Code of Conduct. These industry endorsed best practice guidelines will set standards for previously unregulated commercial dealings between Indigenous artists and commercial interests.

The project is funded by the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Arts Board of the Australia Council and is a joint project of NAVA, Desart and the Association of Northern Kimberly and Arnhem Aboriginal Artists.
