25.01.2022 We have shared stories and shared histories and that’s why it’s so important for us to share this with those communities. Professor Megan Davis hit the nail ...on the head when explaining just how important the translation of the #UluruStatement into over 60 languages is. The translation project was the result of a partnership between the Uluru Dialogue, the Indigenous Law Centre UNSW and SBS Australia for #NAIDOC2020. Not only have SBS provided translations but they have also provided recordings of each of the translations and an information page on everything you need to know about the Uluru Statement. Access here (https://www.sbs.com.au//the-uluru-statement-from-the-heart). Help us continue our important work of spreading the invitation of the Uluru Statement to all Australians, helping to ensure a constitutionally enshrined First Nations Voice to Parliament becomes a reality. #Indigenous #auspol #auslaw #Australia #Aboriginal #TorresStraitIslander

This land is theirs - #AlwaysWasAlwaysWillBe. This photo from December 1940 is of Aboriginal servicemen training in Victoria. Sadly, their names have been lost.

In the spirit of shared learning and conversation, we're going to dedicate some time in the lead-up to #NAIDOC2020 to share some events, talks and celebrations happening online and across the state.
