Uluru Statement from the Heart
The Melbourne UU Fellowship supports the Uluru Statement from the Heart and made a submission in support of the Statement and an Indigenous Voice to Parliament in April 2021. We also made a donation to the University of NSW Indigenous Law Centre to support their National Education Strategy to educate Australian people about the Uluru Statement from the Heart prior to the referendum.
Climate Change
On 31 May 2023 our members joined with the Australian Religious Response to Climate Change outside the NAB headquarters in Bourke Street. This protest highlighted the Market Forces report "Banking Climate Failure" which demonstrated that, despite their climate policy, NAB continues to fund coal projects
War in Ukraine
The Fellowship worked with the Australia-New Zealand UU Association (ANZUUA) to issue a statement on
the war in Ukraine. See the Statement here.
