The Victorian Government has heard from the Aboriginal community that Aboriginal self- determination encompasses a spectrum of rights that are necessary for Aboriginal Victorians to achieve economic, social and cultural equity, based on their own values and way of life.
Government action to enable self-determination acknowledges that Aboriginal Victorians hold the knowledge and expertise about what is best for themselves, their families and their communities and is the critical first step in achieving improved outcomes for Aboriginal Victorians.
