Uluru Statement from the heart

In 2022, we made a $1M commitment to support the Uluru Statement from the Heart and the campaign for a First Nations Voice protected in the Australian Constitution. The first $500K was distributed to two significant partners, the Indigenous Law Centre at UNSW (Megan Davis and her team) and From the Heart (Dean Parkin and his team), with the remainder pledged and to be allocated once the “Yes” campaign launches. The announcement from Prime Minister Anthony Albanese that a referendum on a Voice to Parliament will be held in 2023 has kicked off education and engagement across the country along with a much-needed National conversation. From the Heart built a field team to engage and educate communities at the grassroots level and collaborated with the UNSW Indigenous Law Centre to develop an educational resource for schools. UNSW released a powerful ‘History is Calling’ ad campaign, generating significant media attention.
