Experts have partly attributed the slump to misinformation, along with a lacklustre "Yes" campaign and conservative opposition. That's something I have been wondering about," he said, referring to laws allowing Indigenous Australians to claim rights to land based on traditional occupation. Reaching out to Aboriginal Australia can be challenging, as communities are scattered over vast distances and speak more than 150 languages. Votes from the Northern Territory and the Australian Capital Territory count toward only the former. Visiting Alice Springs last month, Reuters saw "Yes" campaign posters on walls in the town centre and in government office complexes.

Filed: October 04, 2023, 11 p.m. GMTIn the dusty Outback village of Areyonga, Tarna Andrews sat in the local schoolyard and rolled off a catalogue of problems afflicting her largely Indigenous community: Lack of jobs. Andrews has spent 38 years teaching in this tiny settlement, where dogs roam red-dirt streets some 220 km from the nearest large town, Alice Springs. Would Australia’s Oct. 14 referendum on Indigenous issues, if successful, mean better housing, jobs, medical care and other improvements in Areyonga, known locally as Utju, where many live hand-to-mouth? “We don’t see people coming from the government, coming and talking about what we need,” Andrews, who is Indigenous, said in an interview. “If I vote, is the government going to listen to me?”
