MORE THAN A WORD. RECONCILIATION TAKES ACTION
Reconciliation Australia’s theme for 2021, More than a word. Reconciliation takes action, urges the reconciliation movement towards braver and more impactful action.
Reconciliation is a journey for all Australians – as individuals, families, communities, organisations and importantly as a nation. At the heart of this journey are relationships between the broader Australian community and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
To our new supporters, please remember the importance of privileging and amplifying First Nations’ voices as you add your voice to calls for reconciliation and justice.
We all have a role to play when it comes to reconciliation, and in playing our part we collectively build relationships and communities that value Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, histories, cultures, and futures.
2021 marks twenty years of Reconciliation Australia and almost three decades of Australia’s formal reconciliation process.
The online community team want to acknowledge this important week and encourage the community to share a pledge for how you will take action.
I pledge to continue living out my personal commitment to share the true history of this land with my family, friends and workplace. I promise to continue learning and taking opportunities whenever they are presented to me to show solidarity with First Nations people.
What action will you take?
