We will delve into what constitutional recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples might look like, the mechanics of constitutional reform, what reconciliation means for all Australians and the progress made, as well as what the justice system looks like on the frontline for First Australians.
Please join us for what will be an engaging, thought-provoking and memorable conversation.
5.NRW launch: National Acknowledgement of Country 12pm* Wednesday 27 May 2020
To launch NRW 2020 we are asking everyone to take to social media to acknowledge Country. We can’t be physically together to show respect but we can show respect to Country where we are.
On the first day of NRW, take the time to acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the Land that you are on, wherever you are.
Choose your social media platform – or the privacy of your own space – to pay your respects.
Consult the AIATSIS Map of Indigenous Australia for a guide to the Traditional Owners of the Land you are on, and tag the Traditional Owners and/or your own mob plus #InThisTogether2020 #NRW2020
