Imagining a different justice future for Indigenous Children in the ACT
Firstly, thanks to everyone who came along on Monday night to the forum – it was a great turnout and valuable discussion of topical issues. We learned a lot about different approaches and recent developments, and were impressed by the enthusiastic young law students asking the difficult questions.
Come along to our ANTaR ACT committee meeting next Tuesday (7 June) to continue the discussion and look at the next steps.
