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.

The Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation (MAC) is leading a vital campaign to support the World Heritage nomination of the Murujuga Cultural Landscape—home to one of the world’s oldest and most significant collections of rock art. This campaign seeks to amplify Traditional Owners and Custodian’s voices, correct misinformation, and build public understanding of the cultural and environmental significance of Murujuga.

UNESCO is scheduled to make its final decision on the World Heritage listing on 11 July 2025. In the lead-up to this critical milestone, a surge of misinformation has emerged across digital platforms, misrepresenting the intent and impact of the nomination. This misinformation threatens to undermine public support and the success of the listing.

To counter this, MAC is launching a targeted paid social media campaign to reach diverse Australian audiences with culturally grounded, fact-based content. The campaign will feature voices from the MAC Circle of Elders, respected community leaders, and heritage experts, ensuring authenticity and trust.

Funding from the Australian Community Foundation will enable MAC to boost content visibility across Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, particularly in regions where misinformation has taken hold. It will also support the development of short-form video, infographics, and community Q&A sessions to foster engagement and transparency.

This initiative is not only about protecting heritage—it’s about empowering First Nations-led storytelling and ensuring that the truth of Murujuga is heard, respected, and celebrated before this historic decision is made.

Established on 19 April 2006, Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation (MAC) is the body corporate for the Burrup and Maitland Industrial Estate Agreement (BMIEA) and administers contractual obligations under the terms of the BMIEA.

Representing Murujuga’s five groups who are the Traditional Owners and Custodians for Murujuga – the Yaburara. Ngarluma, Yindjibarndi, Mardudhunera, and Wong-Goo-Tt-Oo – MAC acts on behalf of its 1,200-plus Members. MAC brings together the five groups to speak with one voice and to work together to protect land and sea country, and to achieve positive economic outcomes for its Members and their future generations.
The five groups are collectively known as Ngarda-Ngarli and have been part of the cultural landscape for tens of thousands of years.

Murujuga National Park was created in 2013 and is the first national park in Western Australia to be co-managed, with MAC sharing management responsibilities with the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA). MAC is working in partnership with the state and federal governments and other stakeholders to achieve World Heritage Listing for the Murujuga Cultural Landscape in recognition of its outstanding universal (Aboriginal cultural) value.

TRIMOB is a Mob (First Nations) led organisation that centres community & culture, while empowering Mob to improve their health & wellbeing through swim, bike, run. We deliver a range of Mob led and developed programs including the ‘Mob 2 Mob’ and ‘Ironmob’ program. The Mob 2 Mob program delivers triathlon activities directly to Mob, with a focus on youth, and the ‘IRONMOB program’ supports Mob to take on the hardest one day sporting event in the world – an IRONMAN.

TRIMOB’s purpose is to:
– Power the Mob to improve their health & wellbeing
– Increase the participation of Mob in swimming, biking & running
– Provide a Mob led space for Australians to learn and connect with the Mob and showcase our deadliness to the world.

Our goal is to remove the barriers that have prevented Mob from participating in swimming, biking and running and provide opportunities for Mob to participate in these sports to create life long movement and a long life of health and wellbeing.

TriMob has created a community to drive this change for our Mob.

The Justice and Equity Centre (formerly known as the Public Interest Advocacy Centre) is a leading independent law and policy centre. We help build a fairer, stronger society by tackling injustice and inequality.

We work with people experiencing disadvantage to expose discrimination and unfairness. We use test cases and policy advocacy to drive law reform and systems change. Our work protects and promotes human rights by challenging government and corporations. We collaborate and partner to develop solutions and achieve social justice.

At BooksnBoots, we aim to deliver services that support good health, wellbeing, and the happiness of First Nations children across Australia. We strive to level inequalities in health and education through our programs: the Tiny Treasures project, one on one tutoring, and early intervention cultural programs.

Our vision is to Close the Gap, together with First Nations people and their community, as we strongly believe in Self Determination. As an organisation we are guided by foundational principles of Partnership, Collaboration, and Environmental Sustainability, and take a bottom-up, grassroots approach to address disadvantage.

We have also expanded the types of clients we now service with Books n Boots. In 2024, we sent books to juvenile Detention Centres and Family Violence Support Centres. We also reached the milestone of 50,000 books delivered to 80 First Nations communities. This includes the delivery of sports boots to thirty First Nations mobs along the Stuart Highway from Fringe communities, including Alice Springs, to Uluru.

We are extremely proud of all our Booksnboots volunteers who made this possible while we grow from strength to strength

Kununurra Waringarri Aboriginal Corporation (KWAC) is a long-standing, Aboriginal-run not-for-profit organisation based in Kununurra, Western Australia. Established in 1979, KWAC is a community-led organisation delivering a wide range of culturally grounded programs designed to strengthen and empower families, youth, and vulnerable individuals.

Key services include the Community Connectors program, which aids safety through both night and daytime outreach, and the Sober Up Shelter, offering a safe overnight space for intoxicated individuals.

Other programs include the Strong Men’s Program, designed to empower men by providing a space for skill development, reflection, growth, and cultural reconnection, and Empowering Youth (including sport, gaming, and cultural trips), Media Magic film workshops, and the collaborative KEY Holiday Program fostering positive, culturally relevant activities for young people. KWAC’s Children are Learning (CaL) program encourages families to improve school attendance and educational outcomes through tailored plans. Additionally, the organisation supports local families to access and navigate the NDIS through its Remote Community Connector (RCC) service.

KWAC is proudly staffed by 90% Aboriginal program staff, and its leadership reflects deep cultural roots with a 100% Miriwoong Board. Guided by the principle by community, for community, to strengthen community, KWAC’s work is grounded in cultural knowledge, lived experience, and strong local connections. Embedded in the heart of the East Kimberley, the organisation remains committed to community-led, culturally safe approaches that build a stronger, healthier future for Aboriginal families.

The Arid Lands Environment Centre (ALEC) is Central Australia’s leading independent environmental organisation, with 45 years of experience advocating for the protection of Australia’s arid regions. Based in Mparntwe/Alice Springs, ALEC works across landscapes of significant ecological and cultural value, including Uluru, Kata Tjuta, Kati-Thanda (Lake Eyre), and the Channel Country. These regions make up approximately 70% of the continent, contain some of the world’s most intact desert ecosystems and are home to First Nations communities who continue to hold deep connections to Country.

ALEC’s approach is grounded in scientific research, knowledge-sharing, and community engagement. We collaborate with First Nations Traditional Owners, recognising their leadership and expertise in land management and environmental stewardship. Our campaigns include adequate and just water management, land management, and conservation that are informed by both scientific evidence and the custodial knowledge of Traditional Owners and First Nations communities, ensuring these perspectives are integrated to maintain and restore ecosystem balance.

Environmental justice for First Nations peoples is central to ALEC’s mission. We prioritise partnerships that respect First Nations knowledge and experience and support equitable climate adaptation and resource management for remote communities disproportionately affected by environmental change. As a values-led, place-based organisation, ALEC mobilises local communities, informs decision-makers, collaborates with the wider environmental advocacy community, and delivers practical solutions to build resilience in the arid zone. We are committed to protecting the ecological integrity of Australia’s arid lands, led by the knowledge, authority, and unbroken connection of First peoples to Country, now and into the future.

The arid lands of Central Australia face unprecedented environmental challenges that threaten their very existence. Through place-based advocacy and storytelling, we can challenge existing power structures and transform outdated perceptions about these vital landscapes, creating pathways for meaningful environmental protection and cultural preservation.

The Healing the Land project is a unique collaboration between the First Nations publishing and story-telling organisation Running Water Community Press and ALEC, a place-based environmental organisation, bringing together our strengths to achieve our collective goals to better care for Country. Central to this partnership is joint recognition that environmental issues are matters of water justice, climate justice, environmental justice, social justice and First Nations justice.

Healing the Land is a holistic partnership which aims to embed two-way learning and advocacy which is culturally appropriate into the environmental movement.

This project builds on years of existing collaboration through the Ali Curung Water Justice Project. A community-led storytelling project to stop the Singleton Station groundwater licence, directed by Maureen Nampijinpa O’Keefe. In addition to frequently appearing in print and radio, the Ali Curung Water Justice Project featured on the August 2024 Four Corners episode “Water Grab’, as well as being the feature story of the 2023 NAIDOC Special on ABC’s The Drum. This collaboration has resulted in art exhibitions in Sydney, conference presentations in Darwin, visiting the Northern Territory Environment Minister in Mataranka and producing multiple short-films.

There is a succesful model and established relationships for this for this work to be replicated with adequate resourcing.
