First Nations peoples were Australia’s original diplomats and traders. In recent years, the Australian government has sought to embed First Nations perspectives, experiences and interests into Australia’s foreign policy. Yet after the loss in the referendum to create a Voice to Parliament, there are questions about how to further these efforts. In this episode of Conversations, Lowy Institute First Nations Fellow Laura Salt speaks with Professor Megan Davis about the way forward for Australia’s First Nations foreign policy. Professor Davis is a constitutional law expert, international human rights lawyer, and one of the architects of the Uluru Statement from the Heart.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nagpapatuloy ang pagsusumikap para sa pagbabago, isang taon matapos ang nabigong referendum para sa Indigenous Voice to Parlament. Ang tatlong pangunahing elemento ng The Uluru Statement from the Heart—Voice, Treaty and Truth—ay nasa mga kamay na ng mga pamahalaan ng estado at teritoryo.

A year ago, Australia voted ‘No' to the Voice to Parliament.The referendum asked whether Australia wanted to add an advisory body to the Constitution, made up of First Nations people who would have a say on laws and policies that would affect their lives. It was the first of three stages spelled out in the Uluru Statement from the Heart, that called for Voice, Treaty, and Truth. TDA speaks to Professor Megan Davis, a Cobble Cobble woman who was the first person to read aloud the Uluru Statement from the Heart in 2017. She shares her reflections on the referendum, what's happened in the year since, and what she hopes for the future.

When the Referendum to give Australia's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders greater political rights was first announced, it was well received, with the early polls suggesting that more than sixty percent of Australians supported it. This was an opportunity for the establishment of an advisory body to Parliament that would allow Indigenous Peoples a voice on the issues affecting their own communities and for them to be recognised in the Australian constitution. The ‘YES' campaign said their proposals outlined in the Uluru Statement from the Heart, requested a modest yet profound change, allowing Indigenous Australians to take their ‘rightful place' in their own country. Whilst the ‘NO' campaigners argued that the ‘Voice to Parliament' would be racially divisive, giving Indigenous Peoples greater rights over other Australians. In the end Australia voted ‘NO' to changing the status quo, by an overwhelming majority. This week on The Inquiry, we're asking ‘What went wrong with Australia's Indigenous call for a voice?'

Politics this week was dominated by the aftermath of, and the fallout from, the contentious referendum on the Voice. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese faced pressure from the Opposition to explain what his position was on treaty and truth-telling, the other two parts of the Uluru Statement that outlined the vision for the failed Voice to Parliament.  Separately, the conflict in Israel caused tension in Canberra. The parliament passed a motion condemning Hamas' terrorist attacks on Israel, but the Greens sought an amendment that condemned “the war crimes perpetrated by the state of Israel” including the bombing of civilians. They were joined by two independent Teal MPs, Sophie Scamps and Kylea Tink. The amendment failed to pass.

A bridge too far for the Voice to Parliament referendum across the ditch.  It sought to change Australia's constitution to recognise the First Peoples of Australia by establishing a body called the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice.  But it was defeated, with all states voting no, and ACT the only region to vote yes.  Australian Correspondent, Steve Price, told Mike Hosking that this is major damage for Anthony Albanese.  He said that the moment he lost the Australian public was election night, when the first thing he said after winning was that they intend to implement the ‘Uluru: Statement from the Heart' in full.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Australians have resoundingly voted against the Voice to Parliament referendum in every state. First Nations Australians won't be recognised in the constitution, and they won't have a Voice.  It means the Uluru Statement from the Heart has been rejected and the path of Voice, Treaty, Truth is over.  Today, contributor to The Monthly and The Saturday Paper, Daniel James, on what this result says about our country and how we'll move forward after voting No.  Socials: Stay in touch with us on Twitter and Instagram Guest: Columnist for The Saturday Paper, Daniel James

On Tuesday the Aurora Education Foundation, Go Foundation and Indigenous Literacy Foundation have announced their support for the Indigenous Voice to Parliament.

Many Australians are still unsure what the referendum on is even about. What would a Voice to Parliament look like, and how would it help Indigenous people? To help make it more clear, the Australia Institute's own Kate McBride recently sat down with Pat Anderson AO, Alyawarre woman and architect of the Uluru Statement from the Heart.

Our guest for this Special Edition interview is JUNO GEMES, one of Australia's most celebrated contemporary photographers.Born in Hungary, she moved to Australia as a child. In 1970, then a young artist, she spent six months living on Country with Aboriginal communities at Uluru. She went on to documents First Nations activism and the Civil Rights Movement in this country for five decades. Juno photographed many of the early protests and meetings led by Aboriginal activists in the ‘70s and ‘80s, forming lifelong friendships with key figures in the Movement. She photographed the Uluru Handback Ceremony in 1985; marches and activations around the Bicentennial in 1988, and she was one of ten photographers invited to document the National Apology in Canberra in 2008.Wherever you are listening across the world, these stories are important to discover. It's obviously not just Australia that grapples with a legacy of colonisation, and you care about sustainability, the questions linked to all this are fundamental ones: how do we want to live, in relation in one another?

The Uluru Statement from the Heart urges Australia to come to terms with its history. This year the slogan, “History is calling” reminds us that the past is never the past- particularly when it has been forgotten or wilfully misunderstood or ignored. How might we better know our own story and so mature as a nation? Professor Henry Reynolds joins the podcast to share how so many of our legal and historical assumptions about the way Australia was settled are groundless. The conversation travels into the realm of International European Law at the time and the many voices who spoke out against the annexation of the continent and the violence of the Frontier Wars. Henry Reynolds, author of the recent book, “Truth-telling: History, Sovereignty and the Uluru Statement,” is considered one of the nation's leading authorities of the history of Australia's Indigenous people. His many books have enriched our understanding of our past and point the way towards a more hopeful, and truthful, future.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As Hugh, Ryan and Josh quickly discover, that doesn't even scratch the surface of what makes Brooke the inspiring, resilient, game-changing, youth-working, breath of fresh air that she is.While Brooke does touch on her Bachelor and Bachelorette experiences (and why she decided to do it), what makes this Vulnerabilitea House truly special is the story that she vulnerably tells about her upbringing in WA.

In a special episode of the podcast, we take a look at how to navigate the 'Voice to Parliament' Referendum in your boardroom. For our non-Australian listeners, this won't mean much unless you keep up to date with First Nations affairs globally.  In this webinar (converted to podcast), Paul was joined by author, Uluru Statement from the Heart signatory and Yes23 Spokesperson, Thomas Mayo, and CEO of the Australian Indigenous Governance Insitute, Jessica Bulger.  They explored this crucial topic, delving into the significance of acknowledging First Nations communities and how (and why) boards can play a role. Thomas explores the historical struggle for regocognition, whilst Jessica provides an important context and perspective on the principles of effective Indigenous governance. You'll finally hear a panel discussion featuring Paul, Jessica, Thomas and Future Directors' Head of Programs Aisling Blackmore, talking about how boards can engage, listen, and respond to society and social issues.  More from Thomas:  Website: https://www.thomasmayo.com.au/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-mayo-70774378/ More from Jessica: AIGI Website: https://aigi.org.au/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessica-bulger-3993925b/ More from Paul:  Website: https://futuredirectors.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/futurepaulsmith/ More from Aisling:  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/acblackmore/

The Yes campaign have a steep mountain to climb ahead of the October 14 referendum, as a new poll shows the No vote is now in the majority.  The latest Newspoll for The Australian reveals support for the Indigenous Voice to Parliament has fallen to 38 per cent, while those intending to vote No has risen to 53 per cent.  With just under six weeks to go until Australians head to the polls for the first referendum since 1999, the new poll marks the first time since Prime Minister Anthony Albanese announced his intention to constitutionally enshrine Indigenous recognition that opposition to the pitch has outranked support.  The poll also shows support for the Coalition has reached its highest level since the May 2022 election – leading Labor 37 per cent to 35 per cent on the primary vote.  And, ahead of what's set to be a divisive campaign in the lead up to the referendum, Mr Albanese's personal approval ratings have also fallen into negative territory for the first time since taking office – down from 52 per cent to 46 per cent.  The latest poll comes as Opposition Leader Peter Dutton promised to hold another referendum should this one fall over and he be elected prime minister.  Mr Dutton says his referendum would constitutionally recognise Indigenous people without enshrining a Voice.  The Uluru Statement of the Heart explicitly calls for Indigenous recognition in the Constitution through a Voice to Parliament.  Fresh off the high of a new ad featuring John Farnham's “You're the Voice”, the poll is set to be a sober reality check for the 30,000 Yes23 campaigners across the country who are this week embarking on more than 700 activities.  Yes23 Campaign Director Dean Parkin said it would be a “massive week” for mobilising Australians yet to be convinced to vote yes.  “We are taking our campaign to new heights this week,” Mr Parkin said.  “Our volunteers will be everywhere and I encourage Australians to have a conversation and learn more about the importance of voting Yes on 14 October.  “We are rolling out the biggest campaign this country has ever seen.  “We want to make sure that every voter has the opportunity to have a conversation about why voting Yes will bring about positive change for this nation.”  - by Ellen Ransley, news.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Following the Uluru convention, Thomas was entrusted to carry the sacred canvas of the Uluru Statement from the Heart.  In this chat with Jamila Rizvi, Thomas explains the upcoming referendum, his multi-year journey around the country to garner support and why he is boldly making the case for yes.

This episode Darren is thrilled to be joined (for the second time) by Stephen Dziedzic of the ABC, perhaps the finest foreign affairs reporter in Australia and a dear friend of the podcast. While the episode commences with the premise of ‘stories that are bubbling beneath the surface', over time a clear theme emerges – the domestic politics of security pacts. The conversation begins with a new agreement between Papua New Guinea and the United States that seems to be delaying Canberra's efforts to conclude its own pact with Port Morseby. Next up is Vanuatu, where Australia was (surprisingly) able to procure the signing of a new security agreement when a new government took office last year, but which is now facing strong ratification headwinds. Meanwhile in Australia, grassroots discontent within the ruling Labor Party regarding AUKUS threatened to overflow at the party's annual conference this past week. The majority of the podcast was recorded on 11 August, with a quick postscript recorded on 20 August.  Australia in the World is written, hosted and produced by Darren Lim, with research and editing by Walter Colnaghi and theme music composed by Rory Stenning.

The Garma Festival is being held over the next few days in Arnhem Land. There will be a great deal of talk this year about the Voice. Anthony Albanese will speak on Saturday, but he won't announce the date for the referendum. Peter Dutton isn't attending. Meanwhile in parliament this week the opposition has sought to turn the discussion of the Voice to the issue of treaty, also a feature of the Uluru Statement from the Heart. But the government wants to keep the debate strictly to the Voice, dodging questions about treaty where it can. In this podcast Thomas Mayo, a signatory of the Uluru Statement and one of the leaders of the yes campaign, and Derryn Hinch, former prominent broadcaster and a former crossbench senator, join us to argue for the yes and no sides respectively.

In this episode of The Greener Way, we're speaking with Jack Latimore. Jack is the Aboriginal affairs journalist at The Age.

Six years after the Uluru Statement from the Heart, Indigenous leaders and the government have again called for the establishment of an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice to Parliament through a successful referendum.

Australia is in the middle of a national conversation that could transform our relationship with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. But how much do you know about the long story that sits behind the Voice to Parliament referendum?  Thomas Mayo is a Kaurareg Aboriginal and Kalkalgal, Erubamle Torres Strait Islander man, born on Larrakia country in Darwin. He shares with us his journey into union activism and Indigenous struggle. This chat explores what it was like to be part of the Uluru Statement from the Heart and the community movement following it. He talks about the power and importance of the Federal Labor Government's commitment to a national referendum to change the Australian Constitution and create a Voice to Parliament in late 2023.  Thomas has written five books, and you can find out about them here. His latest book released in May 2023 with Kerry O'Brien called “The Voice to Parliament Handbook” is available via all major book distributors (see here). Thomas is on tour talking about the book and the dates and tickets can be found here.  There are lots of organisations campaigning for a yes vote, including:  https://yes23.com.au/ (space to volunteer)  https://togetheryes.com.au/ (supporting kitchen table conversations)  https://ulurustatement.org/training/#/ - a learning platform about the voice and the Uluru Statement from the Heart  The Voice is a produce of a powerful collaborative process led by and for Indigenous Australians that culminated in the Uluru Statement from the Heart.   ULURU STATEMENT FROM THE HEART We, gathered at the 2017 National Constitutional Convention, coming from all points of the southern sky, make this statement from the heart:  Our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander tribes were the first sovereign Nations of the Australian continent and its adjacent islands, and possessed it under our own laws and customs.  This our ancestors did, according to the reckoning of our culture, from the Creation, according to the common law from ‘time immemorial', and according to science more than 60,000 years ago.  This sovereignty is a spiritual notion: the ancestral tie between the land, or ‘mother nature', and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples who were born therefrom, remain attached thereto, and must one day return thither to be united with our ancestors. This link is the basis of the ownership of the soil, or better, of sovereignty. It has never been ceded or extinguished, and co-exists with the sovereignty of the Crown.  How could it be otherwise? That peoples possessed a land for sixty millennia and this sacred link disappears from world history in merely the last two hundred years?  With substantive constitutional change and structural reform, we believe this ancient sovereignty can shine through as a fuller expression of Australia's nationhood.  Proportionally, we are the most incarcerated people on the planet. We are not an innately criminal people. Our children are aliened from their families at unprecedented rates. This cannot be because we have no love for them. And our youth languish in detention in obscene numbers. They should be our hope for the future.  These dimensions of our crisis tell plainly the structural nature of our problem. This is the torment of our powerlessness.  We seek constitutional reforms to empower our people and take a rightful place in our own country. When we have power over our destiny our children will flourish. They will walk in two worlds and their culture will be a gift to their country.  We call for the establishment of a First Nations Voice enshrined in the Constitution. Makarrata is the culmination of our agenda: the coming together after a struggle. It captures our aspirations for a fair and truthful relationship with the people of Australia and a better future for our children based on justice and self-determination.  We seek a Makarrata Commission to supervise a process of agreement-making between governments and First Nations and truth-telling about our history.  In 1967 we were counted, in 2017 we seek to be heard. We leave base camp and start our trek across this vast country. We invite you to walk with us in a movement of the Australian people for a better future.  For more on ChangeMakers check us out: Via our Website - https://changemakerspodcast.org On Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/ChangeMakersPodcast/ On Twitter - @changemakers99 or @amandatatts See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Uluru Statement from the Heart is a major topic in Australia and has garnered significant support from the Catholic bishops. Lindsay Sant and Caroline Knight discuss the statement and make the moral case for voting 'yes' in the upcoming referendum. Additionally, in the field of science, they delve into the topic of the Moon, while in entertainment, they review some recent movies. The post Heart Speaks to Heart appeared first on StarQuest Media.

Thomas Mayo (maritime union worker, author, official advocate for the Indigenous Voice to Parliament) joins me to answer your questions regarding the upcoming referendum to amend the constitution to recognise a Voice. It's a big, historic and profoundly important moment for every Australian voter. We talk through the basics and drill down into the counterarguments – is there a need for more detail (short answer = no, it's constitutionally inappropriate to provide more), does it veto laws (no, it advises only), does it give First Nations Peoples more rights (no, it grants no rights). I've designed things so you can be best prepared for the vote at the end of the year and for the conversation leading up to it.

With growing momentum to enact the Uluru Statement from the Heart, and The Voice to Parliament on the agenda, is a meaningful change for First Nations people finally happening in Australia?In a First Nations led discussion at Antidote 2022, host Jason Glanville was joined by Nareen Young and Nardi Simpson, to discuss what needs to change in our politics, our society and our culture.

Political editor Katharine Murphy speaks to Labor MP Gordon Reid, Liberal MP Bridget Archer and crossbencher Allegra Spender about the launch of their new Friends of the Uluru Statement group in Parliament House. They discuss the significance of the voice to parliament campaign and the power of creating safe spaces to answer questions on the upcoming referendum

When Anthony Albanese declared victory in last year's election, one of the first commitments that he made was to implement the Uluru Statement from the Heart in full. While the Uluru Statement from the Heart includes truth-telling and a treaty, a constitutionally enshrined Voice to Parliament is the first step that the government plans to take. If it goes ahead, it will be the first referendum since the republic vote just over 20 years ago. Professor Gary Foley, senior lecturer of history at Victoria University, on self-determination, the lessons we should take from history and his hope for genuine change.

Next year, Australians will get to vote in a referendum and we will be asked whether Australia should amend its constitution to create an Indigenous Voice to parliament. In this episode from August, we spoke to the first person to read the road map to that referendum outloud after the Uluru Statement from the heart was agreed to. Today we revisit this episode with someone who has spent years working towards constitutional recognition: chair in constitutional law at the University of NSW, Megan Davis.
