The problem with the intervention is that it showed no sensitivity to Aboriginal women whom it was purporting to support. There should be no intervention without wide consultation - touching a whole range of groups.

I look forward to Indigenous policies being developed in consultation with local people so that I can truly feel they belong to the people they most affect and can be supported wholeheartedly by Women for Wik in their implementation. I look forward to WfW engaging in positive action as well as a monitoring and watchdog role. Can this be a 'transformational moment in our history" - I hope so!

The only healing that can take place will be in the context of a partnership between government and the aboriginal people with aboriginal people being asked what it is they need.

We would like to receive all info. as we are keen to help indigenous people to gain human rights.
