For Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, Australia’s colonial history is characterised by devastating land dispossession, violence, and racism. Over the last half-century, however, many significant steps towards reconciliation have been taken. 

Reconciliation is an ongoing journey that reminds us that while generations of Australians have fought hard for meaningful change, future gains are likely to take just as much, if not more, effort.

At its heart, reconciliation is about strengthening relationships between Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander peoples and non-Indigenous peoples, for the benefit of all Australians
