A Vision For Self-Governance In Aboriginal Australia

from In the Loop with Sasha-Ann Simons

In Australia, due to the country’s system of mandatory voting, turnout for federal elections is around 90%, but in many remote Aboriginal communities, it’s far lower. As part of our Democracy Solutions Project, Reset executive producer Dan Tucker traveled to the town of Yuendumu in Australia’s vast Northern Territory to understand why voters stay away from the polls and what it says about political representation in the country.
