ANTAR campaigns nationally on a broad scope of key issues for First Nations people and communities. Our focus has evolved over the years to address critical issues of the time.
Current focus issues include Cultural Heritage, Justice, Voice, Native Title, Treaty, Closing the Gap, UNDRIP, Racism, and Survival Day.
What is First Nations cultural heritage? What is the history of cultural heritage in Australia and where we are up to now? Join the movement for stronger cultural heritage protection.
Australia needs treaties with the First Nations Peoples of this continent to move forwards together – it’s time for Treaty.
The over-representation of First Nations Peoples in the criminal justice system, including the criminalisation and incarceration of First Nations children, is one of the most significant social justice issues in Australia today.
The constitutional enshrinement of a First Nations Voice to Parliament is crucial to recognising Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ right to self-determination and honouring the Uluru Statement from the Heart.
On 3 June 1992, Eddie Koiki Mabo of Mer Island won his peoples’ native title claim when the High Court of Australia ruled to overturn the lie of terra nullius. 30 years on, take action and sign our petition to make Mabo Day a national public holiday.
ANTAR has long advocated for governments to address health and other inequalities that disproportionately affect First Nations Peoples. There are systemic, entrenched and pervasive inequities that burden First Nations people and communities and impact life outcomes overall.
ANTAR is committed to combating racism in Australia through our advocacy for justice and respect. ANTAR believes that all people, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, have the right to live their lives free of racial discrimination.
With 370 million Indigenous peoples globally, ensuring their rights are protected and their needs are heard is vital for the preservation of Indigenous cultures – including languages, beliefs, practices and more. First Nations Peoples in Australia are entitled to the full realisation of their rights as articulated in relevant human rights treaties, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), and specifically the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP).
26 January is not the date to celebrate. It’s a day for respecting the survival of First Nations Peoples in the face of systematic ongoing injustice. We need a national day that brings all Australians together, rather than divides us.
