First Nations peoples rights

We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as our First Peoples and uphold your culture, history, diversity and deep connection to the land. We recognise the harm caused by race discrimination and vilification. It is against the law to treat you unfairly or bully you because you are Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander. In Victoria, First Nations people also have cultural rights under the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities.
