Australians will get answers to their questions about the Indigenous voice to parliament through "yarning circles" with supporters of the referendum.

The architects of the Uluru Statement from the Heart are launching a national program, where people can participate in online sessions to increase their understanding of the proposed voice.

People will be able to ask questions during the hour-long information sessions, which will run from Saturday as part of a national "week of action".

More sessions will be held later in the year as the vote on the voice approaches.

Uluru Dialogue co-chair Pat Anderson said the group wanted to give people a better understanding of what the voice is, so they can make an "informed choice" at the referendum.

"We're asking the public to walk with us on this journey to constitutional reform," she said.

"This referendum is not about politicians, it's not about government. It's about every Australian. You will decide."

Fellow co-chair and constitution law expert Professor Megan Davis said many Australians may not know much behind the "12-year journey to a referendum".

"It's important as we move towards a referendum (that) we give Australians every chance to learn about the voice in a mutually respectful space," she said.

"It's a real opportunity for us to come together and take a step towards a brighter future for the whole country."

A referendum is set to be held in the second half of this year, with legislation to enable the vote expected to be introduced to parliament in March.
