CGU and WFI Insurance have become champions of the Goulburn Murray Regional Prosperity Plan, which aims to integrate Aboriginal identity into the region's economic and social life. [Mirage News](https://www.miragenews.com/cgu-wfi-insurance-back-first-nations-economic-1776221/) reported the insurers' backing on November 12, 2026. The plan seeks to adjust historical behaviours and create sustainable employment pathways for First Nations peoples, building on CGU's partnership with Jawun.

## CGU's Jawun Partnership and the Plan's Goals

CGU said its support builds on a long history of engagement with the Yorta Yorta peoples through its partnership with Jawun, and participation in secondments and capability-building programs for its senior leaders and broking partners. The Plan is founded on the principle that when First Nations peoples, businesses and communities thrive, the broader region benefits socially, culturally and economically.

[Kaiela Institute](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/02lqe5n/kaiela-institute) Executive Chair Paul Briggs said the Plan sets out to adjust historical behaviours and establish new behaviours that talk to the integration and centring of Aboriginal identity into the economic and social life of the Goulburn Murray without the loss of cultural integrity.

"The Plan brings a heightened sense of optimism amongst our people and the region, in that we can sustain ourselves and secure the long-term sustainability of the Yorta Yorta peoples," Mr Briggs said.

"We are delighted that CGU and WFI have become Plan champions, and look forward to working together to develop practical initiatives and create sustainable employment pathways for the region's First Nations peoples."
