Walking Together workshop – The Voice to Parliament and the YES campaign – Ethnic Council of Shepparton and District

In collaboration with Yes23, Migrant Workers Centre and Islamic Council of Victoria, ECCV is hosting a free two-hour workshop next Saturday, 15 July at Victorian Trades Hall for community leaders and people from migrant and refugee backgrounds to learn about the Uluru Statement from the Heart and why the First Nations Voice to Parliament matters. The workshop will discuss how to engage with multicultural communities in building support for the referendum.

Australia’s First Nations people want to be heard. They are inviting us to walk with them to build a better future by establishing a Voice to Parliament. Australians will be required to vote on this change later this year.

This workshop will focus on:

The background and history of the Uluru Statement from the Heart
The Voice to Parliament and the importance of spreading the message to non-Indigenous communities
How non-Indigenous communities can support with the VOICE referendum

Is the workshop free?

Yes! This workshop is free to join, you MUST register as seats are limited.

Where and when?

Solidarity Hall, Trades Hall

54 Victoria St, Carlton VIC 3053
