The Jumbunna Legal Strategies Hub Research and Practice operates at the forefront of Indigenous legal policy, strategic lawyering, and litigation. The hub uses its research expertise to highlight areas of the Australian legal system that deny justice for Aboriginal communities and works with stakeholders to attempt to support and effect change. In collaboration with the broader Jumbunna team and key stakeholders, the hub has supported communities across Australia, including Bowraville, Garuwa, and Muckaty communities, to promote the interests of Aboriginal communities.
During 2023, the Legal Strategies Hub provided legal support and advice in areas such as coronial and discrimination law by utilizing domestic and international law remedies to hold a mirror up to the Australian justice system. The Hub also continues to expand its work working with Aboriginal communities to assert their country interests; addressing Indigenous interests in Indigenous climate litigation, renewable energy development, commonwealth fisheries, and sustainable finance taxonomies. We have also continued our long-term support of the families of the Bowraville Murder Victims. Our activities have spanned the range of research, teaching, and practice.
