About the Implementation Plan

The Closing the Gap Implementation Plan 2024-26 sets out how South Australia will deliver on the National Agreement on Closing the Gap. This second plan builds on the first Implementation Plan agreed in 2021.

The plan outlines our shared approach to addressing the needs, priorities and circumstances of Aboriginal people and communities in SA. It describes our partnership actions, and how we will achieve the Priority Reforms across the 17 socio-economic outcome areas of Closing the Gap.

South Australia's first Implementation Plan

SA’s first Implementation Plan was developed in 2021 and set the foundations for our implementation of the National Agreement.

Across the life of the first Implementation Plan, we established a historic Partnership Agreement between SA Government and SAACCON and set up the SA Partnership Committee (SAPC) on Closing the Gap, as the central governance mechanism for our Closing the Gap implementation.
