A Meaningful Moment for IndiJ & ICT
In over 40 years, ICT has seen just five leadership transitions—each one a pivotal moment. In June, we proudly welcomed Katie Oyan, a veteran journalist with more than two decades at the Associated Press, including national editorial leadership. With deep roots in Indigenous reporting and a bold vision for growth, Katie brings the experience and passion needed to lead us into our next chapter.
