...MoreLyn is a Wiradjuri / Gamilaroi person, raised and schooled in Dubbo (central western NSW), with extensive periods spent in Moree (North West NSW). Her father is Keith Riley of Dubbo and her Mother is Delma (nee) Wright of Moree. Lyn has seven children and a growing number of grandchildren. Lyn’s career has been diverse and has involved working in Aboriginal affairs in both academic and other arenas. She has consistently had to conduct research to develop fresh approaches to address enduring and often sensitive Indigenous issues based on appropriate Indigenous community consultation processes. An example of this was as Manager, Aboriginal Programs Unit, NSW Department Education and Training (DET) and Acting Director, Aboriginal Education and Training Directorate, NSW DET (2002 – 2005).
