About TREATY for Victoria | The First Peoples' Assembly of Victoria Treaty is our opportunity to make sure we – the Traditional Owners of these lands – always have the freedom and power to make the decisions that affect our communities, our culture, and our Country.

The legislation establishes the First Peoples’ Assembly as a permanent representative body to advise the government, under a new statutory corporation called Gellung Warl.
Gellung Warl means ‘tip of the spear’ or ‘pointed spear’ in Gunaikurnai language. 📜 🗃️ firstpeoplesvic.org/treaty/treat...

One of the first things that came to my mind when the UN plastic treaty talks failed was this picture by @nealhaddaway.bsky.social showing the plastic removed from one seabird chick's stomach.

Today Neal wrote his personal response, too.
