Abstract:
Australia is a dynamic and varied country in the Southern Hemisphere and the sixth-largest country in the world by land area. Australia provides a distinctive fusion of urban sophistication and rough nature. It is well-known for its breathtaking natural landscapes, which include the famed Outback and Great Barrier Reef as well as its immaculate beaches and lush rainforests.
Australia faces several obstacles to human rights in spite of its strong democratic history and dedication to the cause. The treatment of Indigenous Australians, who face major differences in health, education, work, and housing as compared to the non-Indigenous population, is one of the most urgent problems. The underlying causes of these differences include persistent systemic prejudice and past injustices. Indigenous Australians continue to push for greater recognition of their rights, including constitutional recognition and a voice in policymaking through mechanisms like the proposed Indigenous Voice to Parliament. The government's efforts to close the gap have come under fire for being insufficient.
