Today marks the start of National Reconciliation Week. NRW takes place every year between May 27 and June 3 and this year’s theme is ‘All In’.

This year's theme reminds us that reconciliation is not a spectator sport; real progress requires action, learning and accountability from all of us. Advancing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ rights is not a passive activity, and it is not the responsibility of First Nations people alone, who have carried the burden of advocacy for too long.

WNSW PHN is currently on our own reconciliation journey as an organisation. The WNSW PHN Innovate RAP recognises the past, strengthens the present and shapes a shared future.
