Question 1 continues on page 3 2 Question 1 (continued) Source B: Extract from an article on Australia s support for the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. The Declaration sets out basic standards for the recognition and protection of Indigenous peoples rights worldwide, including identity, land and resources, self-determination, freedom from discrimination, culture, traditions and language. It was formally adopted by the UN General Assembly on 13th September, 2007. Ms Macklin (The Federal Indigenous Affairs Minister) said The Declaration gives us new impetus* to work together in trust and good faith to advance human rights and close the gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. Speaking after Minister Macklin, Australian of the Year, Professor Mick Dodson, said the existence of human rights and human rights standards was not the source of Indigenous disadvantage. Human rights do not dispossess people, he said Human rights do not cause their poverty and they don t cause gaps in life expectancy and other life outcomes. It is the denial of rights that is the largest contributor to these things. The value of human rights is not in their existence; it is in their implementation**. The standards have been set. It is up to us to meet them. The Tasmanian Aboriginal Centre s State Secretary, Nala MansellMcKenna said For any real outcomes to be made for Aboriginal people, the Declaration must be legislated and passed through Parliament so that it can be made a law of Australia.
