Lila D’Souza

Non-Executive Director

With over 15 years in the sector, Lila’s passion for social justice drives her every day. Her strategic insight and years of experience has led her to provide in-house legal advice, guide policy and advocate for Aboriginal Land Rights, Native Title and equity for Aboriginal peoples. Before joining SEFA’s Board, Lila held leadership positions within the NSW Aboriginal Land Council, the South West Aboriginal Land and Sea Council and the Aboriginal Legal Service (NSW/ACT) Ltd. Lila’ focus is supporting Aboriginal communities to secure economic, cultural and social self-determination. Lila’s experience, deep knowledge and keen instincts help guide our efforts in continuing to unlock social impact for communities in need.

When not working, Lila’s chasing her kids, going to the gym, catching up with friends and making plans for further study. Lila lives and works on Cammeraygal country.
