In its submission to the Inquiry into Pathways and Participation for Indigenous Australians in Employment and Business, Amnesty International has said that keeping children out of prison is a key part of helping them thrive.
Amnesty International has made six recommendations to the Standing Committee on Indigenous Affairs that would give young Indigenous Australians a better chance of success in education, employment and business. These recommendations include raising the minimum age of criminal responsibility, and investing in culturally appropriate, Indigenous-led solutions.
