Event name: Truth & Treaty Forum - Launching Treaty Campaign

Event brief: 

A Truth Telling & Treaty forum In conversation with Senator Lidia Thorpe, Uncle Gary Foley, Jim Everett-Puralia Meenamatta and Ngarra Murray from the First People's Assembly of Victoria.  

This event aims to provide an opportunity to hear from First Nations Elders and leaders about where to go from here on First Nations Justice. 

We will be discussing the importance of Truth Telling as the first step – looking at current developments, and what a national Truth Telling process would contribute. We will also discuss what genuine, inclusive Treaty processes would look like, from the grassroots to National & International levels. 

Treaty must be for the people, by the people. It has to come from the ground up, and each of us have a role to play in making it happen.
