Indigenous Rights

Aboriginal Australians, regardless of whether they live in urban, rural or remote areas, are the most marginalised and disadvantaged group in Australia … and yet Australian Governments of both persuasions continue to ignore their needs.

The Federal Government has ignored the plight of our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities for over a decade, systematically de-funding basic community services and development programs, and stripping away all representative sturctures to give them no say in the decisions which impact upon their lives.
