The 2023 theme, "Be a Voice for Generations" encourages all Australians to be a voice for reconciliation in tangible ways in our everyday lives – where we live, work and socialise. For the work of generations past, and the benefit of generations future, act today for a more just, equitable and reconciled country for all. National Reconciliation Week – 27 May to 3 June – 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.

We are excited to be able to facilitate this year's event to happen concurrently in hundreds of offices, community centres and local council offices across NSW!

Thank you for being part of the movement towards a more reconciled, just and equitable NSW and Australia!
