This year's Reconciliation Week — 27 May to 3 June — is themed: Let’s talk recognition.
"Every single Australian has an important role to play in reconciliation, particularly improving relationships between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and other Australians," said Reconciliation Australia Co-Chair Prof Mick Dodson.
"While there are leadership roles for government and industry in promoting shared pride and ensuring successful policies and programs are delivered, individuals can also make a difference by learning more about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, histories and cultures.
"Events like National Reconciliation Week can provide a focus for all Australians to reflect on reconciliation, learn more about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures —and strengthen the relationships."
