Embrace People & Place acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the land and surrounding waterways on which we meet, the Awabakal and Worimi peoples. We pay our respects to their Elders past and present, to their age-old culture which sustains them and to their enduring connection to the land and waters of their country.
Embrace People & Place acknowledges Sovereignty was never ceded.
Always Was, Always Will Be.
Embrace People & Place will work towards the development of a Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) to guide our Business Plan. The RAP will include practical actions that will drive our contribution to reconciliation.
Embrace People & Place is committed to advancing the five dimensions of reconciliation promoted by Reconciliation Australia.
All Australians understand and value Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and non-Indigenous cultures, rights and experiences, which results in stronger relationships based on trust and respect and that are free of racism.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples participate equally in a range of life opportunities and the unique rights of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are recognised and upheld.
The active support of reconciliation by the nation’s political, business and community structures.
An Australian society that values and recognises Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and heritage as a proud part of a shared identity.
All Australians understand and accept the wrongs of the past and the impact of these wrongs. Australia makes amends for the wrongs of the past and ensures these wrongs are never repeated.
