About
Sandra Creamer, an academic and legal officer, has worked in the legal arena for more than 15 years and is a member of the Queensland Indigenous Lawyers Association. Sandra first started as an Indigenous Community Liaison Officer with Legal Aid Queensland working with Indigenous women and children who were victims of crime, conducting legal information workshops and assisting in cases of racial discrimination and family law. Sandra believes that it is important to educate Indigenous peoples on their rights so that they can learn how to challenge laws and policies that are affecting their communities. Sandra also believes that it is important to translate the language of law so that Indigenous people can understand it for their benefit. Sandra is also a member of the Australia Indigenous Peoples Organisation and has attended the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues. Sandra has been involved with the Global Indigenous Women’s Caucus and the International Indigenous Women’s Forum (FIMI), and in 2013 attended the Global Leadership School of Indigenous Women. Sandra is currently completing a Master’s degree in Human Rights and will be admitted to practice in the Supreme Court in Queensland later this year.
