A Voice to Parliament would be a first for Australia, but it’s not the first of its kind in the world.
Norway has had an indigenous-led Parliament for more than three decades, with local representatives advising on issues that impact their people.
Closer to home, New Zealand has a Maori Voice in Parliament, with specially established seats for indigenous MPs.

Today, author and contributor to The Saturday Paper Andrew Wear on what we can learn from other countries that have given indigenous people a Voice.
