National Reconciliation Week 2020
Thank you for your support of and participation in National Reconciliation Week 2020
We thank our long-term allies and supporters who have walked beside us for decades and all of the new ones who walked with us this year.
To our new supporters, please remember the importance of privileging and amplifying First Nations’ voices as you add your voice to calls for reconciliation and justice.
Reconciliation is a journey for all Australians – as individuals, families, communities, organisations and importantly as a nation. At the heart of this journey are relationships between the broader Australian community and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
We all have a role to play when it comes to reconciliation, and in playing our part we collectively build relationships and communities that value Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, histories, cultures, and futures.

NRW2020 Artwork
Reconciliation a continuing journey of growth and togetherness
The logo for National Reconciliation Week (NRW) 2020 is based on artwork created by Biripi/Bunjalung woman Nikita Ridgeway entitled, “Reconciliation, a continuing journey of growth and togetherness.”
The artwork’s design elements represent Australians together on a national journey of reconciliation while paying homage to the past and recognising the present.
