Reconciliation

Reconciliation is defined as the process of understanding and restoring a relationship, particularly if the reason for the rift is as a result of one party’s actions. Reconciliation is a community-based movement involving Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. It is a process that aims to improve relations between Indigenous peoples and the wider community.
What is Reconciliation?


Reconciliation involves building mutually respectful relationships between Indigenous and other Australians. Achieving reconciliation involves raising awareness and knowledge of Indigenous history and culture, changing attitudes that are often based on myths and misunderstandings, and encouraging action where everyone plays their part in building a better relationship between Aboriginals and fellow Australians.
