16.01.2022 Today we celebrate the anniversary of the Yirrkala Bark Petitions and recognise their significant contribution to our nation’s reconciliation journey. Presented to Parliament by the people of Yirrkala, the petitions provide insight into the worry that people were feeling as mining encroached on their land and children’s futures. This moment triggered the constitutional recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people #Reconciliation #AcknowledgeCountry Read more here: https://aiatsis.gov.au//digit/yirrkala-bark-petitions-1963

11.01.2022 The ACT has become the first jurisdiction in Australia to support raising the age of criminal responsibility from 10 to 14, in a move hailed by justice campaigners as a huge win for the rights of children. The resolution, which brings the territory into line with United Nations standards, says it will be the responsibility of whichever parties form government after the ACT election in October to amend the legislation. #RaiseTheAge

06.01.2022 Today is the United Nations International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples. Aunty Millie Penny said at the Danjoo Koorliny Social Impact Festival summit this weekend, "In this COVID world crisis Noongar people know how to survive, we know the Noongar seasons, we know how to care for the land, we know how to live on the land. We know how to survive, we have been doing it for a long time." Danjoo Koorliny Social Impact Festivall's community event closes its summit today ...and as we reflect on the summit and this year's International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples, ‘COVID-19 and Indigenous Peoples’ resilience’, we are inspired by the Aboriginal-led festival and the invitation to #walktogether. #DanjooKoorliny #WalkingTogether #DanjooKoorliny2020 #InternationalDayoftheWorldsIndigenousPeoples #Noongar Centre for Social Impact The University of Western Australia
