No campaign ‘offers no solutions and no vision’: young Indigenous leaders
The youth declaration urged Australians to educate themselves on the change, claiming “the no campaign offers no solutions and no vision for our young people’s futures, or our families and communities”.
We are excited that our Uluru Youth Dialogue, as the leading and only youth-led campaign, will be at the forefront of this referendum working alongside the senior leaders of the Uluru Dialogue.
These statistics are important. They paint a picture of a media debate that has shut out young people and their voices. Especially the voices of First Nations young people.
It is our future. Young people are crucial to this movement. We stand on the shoulders of our ancestors, carrying forward the spirit and legacies of warriors before us.
