|
| This week we celebrate National Reconciliation Week, with the theme for this year, Now More Than Ever, reminding us that the reconciliation journey will and must continue in this country. | | Following the Referendum, the reinforcing message we received from our community is that Griffith University remains committed to reconciliation and has an important role in facilitating reconciliation through truth-telling and healing. | | Truth-telling is intended to create new relationships between First Peoples and non-Indigenous communities based on greater understanding. We hope that you, our alumni, will continue to support reconciliation in action. | | Read the Deputy Vice Chancellor's message |
