Voice to Parliament Referendum: Inside the Youth Yes Campaign

“Some people here don’t have citizenship…”.

They’re targeting the younger generation, and so should we. Get your family together, nieces, nephews etc, educate them on how the VTP will impact their future and the future of their indigenous friends. Leave no stone unturned, their future depends on a majority NO.

In loungerooms and at kitchen islands across Australia in the next six weeks, young supporters of the Indigenous voice to parliament will start conversations with their grandparents on the referendum.

And some will have their work cut out.

This month, an exclusive Newspoll found retirees were among those most likely to be opposed to recognising Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the Constitution through an Indigenous advisory body.

That is one reason why young Australians are workshopping strategies this weekend at the Hands on Heart Youth Voice National Conference in Sydney.
