A Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) program provides a framework for organisations to be inclusive in their work and contribute to national reconciliation.
AAG's Reflect RAP sets out the steps between January 2020 to June 2021 needed to prepare the organisation for reconciliation initiatives in successive RAPs. It allows AAG to spend time scoping and developing relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander stakeholders, deciding on our vision for reconciliation and exploring our sphere of influence, before committing to specific actions or initiatives. This process will help to produce future RAPs that are meaningful, mutually beneficial and sustainable.
The RAP enables AAG to contribute to reconciliation by:
- Building and encouraging relationships between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, communities, organisations and the broader Australian community.
- Fostering and embedding respect for the world’s longest surviving cultures and communities.
- Developing opportunities within AAG to support and improve socio-economic outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities.
AAG thanks Reconciliation Australia for their support developing this plan.
