In 2023, a referendum will ask Australians if there should be constitutional recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. This vote will give all Australians the chance to come together and consider a change to our constitution that will honour and celebrate the rights, history, and ongoing relationship of Indigenous Australians with this land.
But voting 'yes' isn't enough. We need to unite to ensure it's a resounding YES from every corner of the country. Together, Yes invites you and the people in your life to engage in respectful and honest dialogue about the Voice to Parliament. It's a movement built on the tried and tested 'kitchen table conversations' process developed by the Victorian Women's Trust.
Conversation Hosts and Co-Hosts are the pivotal part of the Together, Yes campaign. All you have to do is bring a small group together in your home or somewhere else. The Victorian Women's Trust will do the rest by providing high-quality, curated session materials which build empathy and connection to the historical and contemporary issues underpinning the case for a Voice.
The more people who step into the role of Conversation Host before May, the greater the civic participation across our community, and the larger the social movement. Head to togetheryes.com.au/get-involved to learn more and get involved between May and June.
