    The Wider Image: In Australia’s Outback, Indigenous Voice proposal struggles

    Teacher Tarna Andrews sits in the local school grounds, ahead of a nationwide referendum on Indigenous issues, in Areyonga, Australia, September 15, 2023. On October 14, Australians will vote on whether to recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the constitution and enshrine in it an advisory body called the Voice to Parliament that would give non-binding advice to lawmakers on matters concerning the continent's first inhabitants. Polls show it is headed for likely defeat. "We don't see people coming from the government, coming and talking about what we need," Andrews, who is Indigenous, said in an interview. "If I vote, is the government going to listen to me?"  REUTERS/Jaimi Joy

    ABOUT QUEWS

    We are a news service born out of a global loss of confidence in media and destabilising polarisation of attitudes. We believe it is possible, indeed necessary, to create a public forum where vital issues of the day are discussed, debated, analysed and circulated.
