The eyes of the world will be on this landmark decision. Millions of people — including Australian politicians — will be watching. That means a rare chance to cut through the noise.
We’ve got a plan to seize this opportunity. Depending on how much funding we have to work with, we can ensure the most powerful story hits headlines and politician briefing notes.
If enough of us donate, we can:
- ✅ Support Torres Strait leaders to come together for this historic moment. The Uncles, their families, Torres Strait witnesses in the case, and community leaders have fought for years for justice. It’s crucial that they can stand together in Cairns to hear the decision and to process the result together.
- ✅ Hold a powerful ceremonial event outside the court. This moment deserves to be marked with dignity, respect, and cultural strength. We will honour the courage of the Uncles and their communities through ceremony, ensuring their voices and stories are centered in the public narrative.
- ✅ Ensure there’s maximum positive media coverage. The eyes of the country will be on this decision. We’ll coordinate press conferences, media interviews, and storytelling opportunities to ensure that this case—and Torres Strait voices—reach millions of people.
- 📣 Create a powerful, shareable video. A short, high-impact film will capture what’s at stake, the Uncles’ incredible four-year fight, and the urgency of government action. This video could be shared widely to engage and mobilise people across the country.

📣 Make the ceremonial event bigger and more impactful. By supporting the Saibai Dance Team to fly from the Torres Strait to Cairns, we can showcase Zenadth Kes culture and resilience in a way that commands attention.
