Today marks the beginning of Reconciliation Week; a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements, and to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia.
The 2021 theme ‘More than a word. Reconciliation takes action’ urges the reconciliation movement towards braver and more impactful action.
In order to achieve a just, equitable, reconciled Australia, we must continue to provide platforms for First Nations peoples, listen and actively work towards justice.
