Now we finally have a date for the Voice to Parliament referendum, it’s a good time to return to the terrific work our academic experts have done to explain the Voice to Parliament – as well as debunking some of the misinformation and disinformation we’ve seen so far.
Many of the questions we have addressed came from readers who took part in our Voice reader survey last year. In seeking answers, we’ve drawn from the nation’s preeminent constitutional experts, and prioritised First Nations perspectives.
The Australian constitution and the 220-plus page report of the co-design proposed Voice are not very accessible for those of us who don’t speak fluent policy. This is why the work we do at The Conversation is vital. Often it’s not only academic findings we need to translate for readers, but the very documents and policies that govern our lives.
