Together we can end the Indigenous health crisis.

We’ve stood together to right this kind of wrong before. In ’67, Australians united to pass an historic referendum, affirming the basic rights of Indigenous Australians. But as long as diseases like leprosy, TB and blinding trachoma still afflict our people, that fight isn’t over. As we draw towards the 40-year anniversary of the ’67 referendum on May 27 we want to give politicians an unflinching new mandate, backed by tens of thousands—Just $30 million in additional annual health funding, or an extra ten bucks for every Indigenous Australian on top of last year’s budget increase.
Don’t delay – sign the petition for Indigenous health equality now.
With an actionable health plan led by the Australian Medical Association and ample resources at our disposal, we can’t afford to waste any more time. Both the ALP and the Coalition must rise above election squabbling to close the gap. We’re presenting them this bipartisan petition on May 27 to mark the ’67 anniversary. Add your name if you haven’t already and share this campaign with friends. Together we’ll stand shoulder-to-shoulder to rise to the challenge of our generation.
Fingers crossed for the 27th May that politicians pay attention to this petition. Also, ANTaR has built a Sea of Hands website where you can add a hand and tell politicians what you think about the state of Indigenous health in Australia.
