Australian Human Rights Commission Annual Report 2021–22 The Government has expressed commitment to implement all recommendations. To date, the following 3 of the 28 recommendations have been fully implemented. The implementation of the remaining 25 recommendations is either in progress, to be commenced once corresponding recommendations are implemented, or to be discussed further. The Review has paved the way for New South Wales, South Australia and Tasmania to commission their own independent reviews into their respective State parliamentary workplaces. Wiyi Yani U Thangani (Women’s Voices) Project This year saw the completion of stage two of the Wiyi Yani Thangani (Women’s Voices) project, overseen by Commissioner June Oscar AO, Social Justice Commissioner. This built on the first stage of the project which involved national engagements with over 2,000 First Nations women and girls in over 50 locations around the country. This culminated in the production of the Wiyi Yani U Thangani Report tabled in federal Parliament December 2020, setting out First Nations women and girls’ aspirations for structural reform. This reporting period work focused on implementation and socialising the report with communities, organisations and governments throughout Australia and translating its aspirations into actions and initiatives to create meaningful change. This has involved formalising a national network for action. Other activities include the development of a short, animated film on the project, its themes, and its calls to action ‘From dreams, let’s make it a reality’. The project has formalised a national network for action and developed a supporter toolkit for community, private and public sector stakeholders looking to embed Wiyi Yani U Thangani into their work. The Commission has worked with communities and organisations on local implementation of the report and worked with the federal government on the implementation of the report in policy development. Roundtables with community leaders and experts took place to inform the development of the Wiyi Yani U Thangani Implementation Framework, which draws on the substantial evidence-base and actions put forward in the Wiyi Yani U Thangani Report and provides the conceptual underpinning for the system change work ahead. 32
