Members of Queensland\u2019s Treaty Advancement Committee will be online talking to communities across the State on Friday about Path to Treaty progress.<\/p>\n

Registrations for the 2:00pm webinar can be made online here<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hosted by Kerry O\u2019Brien, the Treaty Advancement Committee – including co-chairs Mick Gooda and Dr Jackie Huggins as well as Prof Michael Lavarch, Dr Sallyanne Atkinson and Dr Josephine Bourne – will be online for the Q&A webinar.<\/p>\n

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Partnerships Minister Craig Crawford said the briefing would help to connect communities with the historic process.<\/p>\n

Dr Huggins said the opportunity to re-connect with communities would help shine a light on the progress being made.<\/p>\n

\u201cPart of this is about looking at the Eminent Panel\u2019s recommendations and thinking through what those actions will look like as part of the implementation stage,\u2019\u2019 Dr Huggins said.<\/p>\n

Mr Gooda said the next steps would be carefully considered to ensure an inclusive process for all Queenslanders.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is nation-building work. It\u2019s about reconciling our past so that all Queenslanders can move forward together,\u201d he said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWe know that building trust with the broader community and designing culturally safe and meaningful mechanisms for truth-telling will be central to achieving our goals.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere has been extensive consultation undertaken with Queenslanders right across the State, and these voices, ideas and learnings will be carried forward with us as we work through how implementation will be shaped.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Treaty Advancement Committee will report to government on options later this year.<\/p>\n
