About us

- Independently investigating deaths and fires. Certain deaths and fires are reported to Coroners for independent investigation. Their investigations seek to establish the facts - when, where, how, and why the death or fire happened.
- Reducing preventable deaths. Wherever possible, the Coroner will suggest ways to prevent similar deaths or fires by making well informed and practical recommendations, based on the evidence before them.
- Promoting public health and safety and the administration of justice. CCOV regularly reports on data and trends regarding preventable deaths in Victoria to help inform public health responses.
About the role
The purpose of the Aboriginal Cultural Support Adviser is to provide assistance when coronial investigations involve an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander deceased person.
The role provides culturally safe support to family, friends, and the community throughout the coronial process, while also offering culturally focussed advice and support to Coroners on aspects of their coronial investigations as requested.
