Australians urged to back Indigenous voice to parliament in History is Calling campaign

A new education campaign pushing for a First Nations voice to parliament is being unrolled by the creators of the Uluru Statement from the Heart.

Last month, the Uluru statement leadership put forward two dates Australians could be called to decide by referendum whether to enshrine a voice to parliament in the constitution: 27 May 2023 or 27 January 2024.

Labor said it would hold a referendum in its first term if it wins the federal election, indicating to Guardian Australia its preference was for a 2024 date. It has also committed to enacting the Uluru statement in its entirety.

The national education campaign will run throughout May and June.
