Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander disadvantage

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are part of the oldest living culture in the world. They also experience a disproportionate amount of disadvantage.

Many of the contributors are systemic and structural

This means we need to address both the hardship experienced and the underlying reasons that have led to them.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have shared a pathway with us to address this social justice issue in the Uluru Statement from the Heart — now we need to walk along it.
