National Reconciliation Week








As many of you will know, and for those who did not, today is the last day of National Reconciliation Week. 
Celebrated every year from May 27th until June 3rd, National Reconciliation Week is book-ended by two incredibly important dates in Australia’s history - the anniversaries of the successful 1967 referendum and the High Court Mabo decision. It is a week for Australians to learn about the shared histories of Indigenous Australians and European settlers, and to celebrate acceptance, diversity and respect between cultures. 

This year, the theme for the week was ‘Let’s Talk Recognition’, focusing on how Australians can recognize and celebrate the diverse contribution that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures have had on our history. It could be something as simple as displaying some Indigenous artwork in your office, listening to the traditional music (or contemporary music created by an Indigenous person), or sharing a tasty Paleo bush tucker recipe on your blog!
