hospitalised because of violence, and the rates of such violence are significantly underreported.165 First Nations women are 11 times more likely to die due to assault than non-Indigenous women.166 118. First Nations children are significantly over-represented in care and protection systems, and family violence is a key factor driving the contact of First Nations families with child protection authorities167 It is also a factor that leads to women having greater interaction with the criminal justice system.168 119. The Commission’s Wiyi Yani U Thangani project has been funded by the Australian Government and identifies actions to improve the human rights of First Nations women and girls. This includes an urgent focus on reducing over-representation of Indigenous people victims of family violence, and in care and protection systems, with a focus on trauma recovery. A key recommendation is the development of a National Action Plan for Aboriginal and Torres Islander Women and Girls.169 The Commission welcomes the recent commitment by the Australian Government to delivering a dedicated National Plan for First Nations people to end family violence and violence against women.170 The Commission will host a summit of First Nations women and girls in early 2023 to input into government policies and frameworks. 120. The Commission emphasises the importance of ensuring that this National Plan is self-determined, and that First Nations women and children are at the centre of its design and delivery.171 The Commission also stresses that sustained investment in community-controlled services and programs is crucial to preventing and responding to family violence and its impacts on children. 121. To address systemic failures associated with domestic and family violence, the recommendations of Coronial Inquests should be fully implemented. The Commission has previously called for a coherent national system of death reviews to consider cross-jurisdictional issues and ensure accurate monitoring. The Commission made recommendations to support this in its 2016 report, A National System for Domestic and Family Violence Death Review.172 Recommendation 27: Governments implement the recommendations of the Wiyi Yani U Thangani report. Recommendation 28: Governments resource Aboriginal-controlled organisations to lead prevention efforts and respond to family violence and its impacts on children. 28
