Individuals, communities and organisations are invited to provide feedback on how they think the proposals for a Local and Regional Voices and a National Voice will work for them.

Now is the time to provide your feedback on the proposals for an Indigenous Voice at a consultation session, or complete a survey or submission at any time on the Indigenous Voice website.

The proposals for an Indigenous Voice would provide a way for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians to provide advice and input on matters that are important to improve their lives.

The proposals have been developed by the Indigenous Voice co-design groups and could be made up of two parts – Local and Regional Voices and a National Voice.

Local and Regional Voices would be community designed and led governance structures at a regional level. The National Voice would be a national body made up of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

Public consultation and input is critical to ensure the best possible proposals are presented by the Indigenous Voice co-design groups in their final report to the Australian Government.
