As the debate of the proposal for the inclusion of the Voice into the Australian Constitution has advanced, the dignity and grace of so many indigenous leaders who advocate for their people to be heard has been in striking contrast with the negativity of those who campaign for the ‘No’ vote. This is not a surprise. Indigenous leaders have learned and earned these qualities through many long and difficult years of leading their people towards the preparation of the Uluru Statement. The Uluru Statement from the Heart is a simple yet eloquent document which emerged itself from three years, and so many more, of intense consultation and exchange in indigenous communities across the nation. The depth of engagement and the confidence that this reflects offers encouragement and conviction to many of us to believe that this is the moment for change.

The Cities Learning Together conference is approaching rapidly. The European Union Centre at RMIT, PASCAL and the Hong Kong Institute of Education are very pleased to invite your participation. All the elements are now in place for an exciting and stimulating experience in Hong Kong in November.

A great deal of work has been done so far by many people and our conference partners: ASPBAE, ICAE , CITYNET, PRIA, EAFAE, APUCEN, and DVV (see details in attached booklet).
