Patricia Ansey-Passi - bio

"I am Patricia, my story starts with direct bloodline of the Dauareb tribe from Dauar and Waier of the Eastern Isles of Murray which is where I was raised, Meriam which means of Murray Island. My nucleus family first moved to Cairns over 20 years ago. Third language English, we evolved to a new way of living. Soon after high school I worked and travelled around Australia through most of my young adulthood dedicating myself to adventure, gratitude and new opportunities. Today Mooroobool is my home. My community orientation derives from being raised in a thriving environment filled with Meriam culture, traditions and core Christian values: Everyone is family. I don’t have a passion but I do have purpose. I started as a volunteer, working very closely with a number of multicultural families inside of the 3Ms for the most of eight years.

First volunteering in the school tuckshop at Cairns West State School then P&C directorship then State representation to caucus in the Senate with P&C QLD and QLD ED for ‘GONSKI’; I have support my Meriam elders launch and structure our community Meriam Buai Torres Strait Islander Corporation Cairns registered since 2018; I have grassroot Multicultural Mooroobool with one other elder from Penryn Island of the Cook Islands, to then register APEX Community Support Inc. with our community collective from five different local cultural groups! The same joint vision over the years- 1) lay a community foundation where our community-based-approach can take ownership of our needs. 2) develop our own activities and programs to meet positive outcomes in reaching resolution of our community challenges. 3) Now, these communities have a voice and a bridge for much needed support, yarns space and community fun too! Currently I am operating as a sole trader connecting, developing, and sharing what I know and what works in communities. You can find me at KEY CONSULTANCY & COMMUNITY SERVICES registered Indigenous Business Owner and Operator, Patricia Ansey-Passi. Thanks to all involved in our podcast- ENJOY!"
