The right to Indigenous self-determination and recognition feature prominently in debates in Australia and indeed around the world.

In this episode of the Policy Shop, New Zealand Māori constitutional lawyer, Dr Moana Jackson and Dr Shireen Morris, a McKenzie Postdoctoral Fellow at the Melbourne Law School, consider questions about treaties versus constitutional recognition and ask how we might move beyond rhetoric on community engagement.
