Be a Voice for Generations 

National Reconciliation Week (May 27 – June 3) is launched by the observation of National Sorry Day on Thursday, May 26. National Sorry Day is a time for Australia to pause and acknowledge the grief, trauma and loss suffered by the Stolen Generations. National Reconciliation Week is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements, and to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia.

This year’s theme is ‘Be a Voice for Generations’, encouraging all Australians to be a voice for reconciliation in tangible ways in our everyday lives – where we live, work and socialise.

Resources include:

• 5 Ideas for National Reconciliation Week poster
• Prayers from our leaders
• Leaders notes 
• Meeting PPT
• Social media images
• Discussion guide and response card
• Guidelines for engaging with an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Pastor
