Political party in Australia
The Indigenous-Aboriginal Party of Australia, also known simply as the Indigenous Party of Australia, is a minor Australian political party, launched and based in Wilcannia, New South Wales.[2] The party's main objective is to tackle Indigenous issues and for Indigenous rights and to stop development projects destroying native land.[7][8] It was formed in 2020, and gained federal registration on 29 November 2021. As of November 2021[update], it is stated to have over 2,000 members.
The party was formed in October 2020 by Uncle Owen Whyman, who is of Paakantyi and Malyangapa origin,[9][10] and is open to Indigenous and non-Indigenous people.[2] However, all party Executive members and candidates must be Indigenous.[11]
As of March 2022[update], the party has six candidates for the 2022 federal election, with Whyman running in the Senate for New South Wales.[2]
