Statement Acknowledging the Outcome of The Voice To Parliament Referendum
Nossal Institute for Global Health knows that listening to the communities with the most at stake in improving health is the best way to find effective solutions. While the ‘no’ vote in the referendum means there will be no formal establishment of an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice to Parliament, we must continue to listen to First Nations people about their health and lives – and to take action in support. The values of the University’s Murmuk Djerring Indigenous Strategy - humility, commitment, accountability, respect and reciprocity – will guide us in doing so.
