National Reconciliation Week

During National Reconciliation Week, 3M learnt about what this celebration means. Here are some of our findings.

·         The dates represent the 1967 referendum and the High Court Mabo decision, two important events in the reconciliation journey.

·         National Reconciliation Week is all about forming positive relationships between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and the broader Australian community.  This year the theme is ‘Grounded in Truth, Walk Together in Courage’ and it is about acknowledging Australia’s history, working to heal wounds of the past and together moving forward. 

·         National Reconciliation Week is a week for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures and achievements. It is about exploring how we can build and maintain respectful relationships well into the future.
