"Victoria is on the brink of making history. This week, after years of
negotiations, the state government tabled a landmark Treaty Bill in parliament.
If passed, potentially later this month, it will deliver a formal apology to
First Peoples, embed Aboriginal truth-telling in schools and restore
traditional names to parks and waterways.
Crucially, the Treaty process has unfolded alongside the Yoorrook Justice
Commission, Australia’s first Indigenous-led truth-telling inquiry.
For many, “Treaty” might sound abstract or political. But in Victoria, it’s
becoming something concrete: a new way of sharing power, resources and
recognition that could transform the daily lives of First Peoples and set a
standard for the rest of the nation."
