Non-binding representation in government? I'm not Australian and only know what's in this article, but that sounds like #greenWashing only with #FirstPeoples.

“Indigenous peoples are forced to deal with the burdens of [extractive industry] development on their lands, so we as Indigenous peoples have knowledge about what happens and that needs to be more widely known,” said Kate Finn, of First Peoples Worldwide.

In recent decades, the veritable explosion of Aboriginal art-making — a movement that rivals anything in the history of art — shows just how false the terra nullius deception is. In the outpouring of contemporary Aboriginal painting, the viewer comes face to face with a land known with incomparable intimacy by its people.
But No Stone Without a Name is not about that stunning modern work. Rather, it considers the landscape art of the period of European colonisation. It further confines its assessment to Western Australia. But there is enough art from that time and place to fill more than 450 sumptuously printed pages. And enough sorrow to fill an ocean."

Beautiful interactive globe showing Indigenous territories, treaties, and languages of the world, along with many more resources.
(So far globe does not show India, China, Middle East, but i think they are coming.)

Which does nothing to compensate for your pedantic misrepresentation: "to name them the first inventors is so overhyped".

One pedantic interpretation of the series' title might be that Australia's first peoples invented everything. A more rational reading is that they were in Australia first (as in, before the British) and they invented some things.

Reciprocating your predilection for facile sophistry:
you imply that Australia's first peoples never invented anything. You can substantiate that, of course.
