Aboriginal people in the Warragul area are invited to a lunch and a yarn about treaty.

“I want to update people about what’s happening, and make sure community has the facts,” said Treaty Advancement Commissioner, Jill Gallagher AO.

“I want to hear the voices of the Aboriginal community,” she said.

  • Learn about the journey to treaty
  • Get the facts about the future Aboriginal Representative Body
  • Make your mark on history with the possum skin cloak
  • Get your treaty tshirt

Community will be able to vote in elections for the Aboriginal Representative Body, which will set the ‘ground rules’ for negotiations.

It will be made up of traditional owners. Elections will likely be held in mid 2019.
