We at QMusic and BIGSOUND have made the decision to support the YES campaign in the upcoming referendum, in order to reflect our advocacy role within our state's music industry. We make this decision to show our support for recognition, reconciliation, and respect towards First Nation people.
To maintain and observe equity within the music industry that we love so dearly, we will continue to acknowledge, celebrate and support our First Nation artists, businesses, stakeholders and communities, and acknowledge the importance of recognising an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice into parliament.
We believe by listening to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island community members, we can collectively make better decisions around the issues that affect them.
We recognise that each individual will have their own unique perspective around this issue and we respect everyone's right to their own opinion. We encourage open and respectful dialogue, and we welcome diverse viewpoints.
Our goal is to continue to create an inclusive and welcoming environment for all, regardless of background or perspective. Together, we strive to elevate and celebrate First Nations voices, and offer a platform to be heard.
