Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples

Indigenous Minister Malarndirri McCarthy has suggested the Queensland government ‘hold your horses.’

‘Indigenous knowledge’ will be a core part of Australia’s push towards net zero.

As Victoria negotiates on a Treaty with its Aboriginal people, an elder has presented a list of 10 demands, which the premier says will be considered.

In total, more than $80 million was spent by various groups trying to convince voters to support or oppose the proposal, which was eventually rejected 60:40.

The money will deliver up to 270 new homes each year for 10 years, and comes on top of an existing building programme.

Out of every 1,000 Indigenous children, 72 are now subject to care and protection orders, the Australian Institute of Health and Wellbeing says.

Following the defeat of The Voice, some institutions are banning Welcome to Country ceremonies.

The timing has been questioned as Australians navigate a cost of living crisis and responded with a resounding ‘No’ to The Voice referendum.

Advocates for change blame ’misinformation' for loss.

“When you’re dealing with taxpayers’ money, the money needs to be spent in accordance with the law and to the benefit of the people it’s supposed to help.”

The effectiveness of public expenditure on Indigenous affairs is not a recent concern.
