The Uluru Dialogue is the cultural authority of the Uluru Statement from the Heart, hosted by the Indigenous Law Centre at UNSW, it is Australia’s only Indigenous law centre and has led constitutional recognition for the past 25 years. Co-chaired by Professor Megan Davis AC and Pat Anderson AO, we designed and conducted the First Nations Regional Dialogues that culminated in the historic 2017 consensus at Uluru.
In 2023, 6.2 million Australians voted Yes to constitutional recognition. That places us at the helm of the largest social justice movement in our nation’s history. Constitutions matter and recognition remains unfinished business.
We are a small team with big reach—combining deep legal expertise, nationally trusted voices, and a globally recognised and proven model of dialogue. We are ready to keep building the case for reform, strengthen civic understanding, and prepare the ground for what comes next.
Our current priorities include:
– Rebuilding community consensus through renewed Dialogues
– Expanding our supporter base and communications capacity
– Developing a national civics education program
– Mapping laws and policies that have impacted First Nations since 1788 (Towards Truth)
– Demonstrating what a Voice could do—starting with a pilot on climate and Country
All donations are tax-deductible via our host organisation, UNSW, and go solely to our work.
The referendum was not the end. We are steadfast in our commitment to the Uluru Statement’s vision: a more participatory democracy, and a stronger, more united Australia.
History shows that minds change, but only if we keep walking on. Together, we can.
