National Reconciliation Week
National Reconciliation Week is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements, and consider how each of us can contribute to achieving a just, equitable and reconciled country for all.
National Reconciliation Week runs from 27 May to 3 June every year.
These dates commemorate two significant milestones in Australia’s reconciliation journey - the successful 1967 referendum, and the High Court Mabo decision respectively.
This year’s theme, Bridging Now to Next, calls on all Australians to step forward together, to look ahead and continue the push forward as past lessons guide us.
