Be Brave. Make Change. #NRW2022
The National Reconciliation Week 2022 theme, Be Brave. Make Change, is a challenge to all Australians – individuals, families, communities, organisations and government – to be brave and tackle the unfinished business of reconciliation so we can make change for the benefit of all Australians.
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.
Reconciliation Australia CEO Karen Mundine said this year’s theme builds on the 2021 theme which encouraged us all to greater action on reconciliation.
“Last year Reconciliation Australia encouraged all Australians to take action; not just in National Reconciliation Week but every week of the year.
“We saw unprecedented response to our suggested actions for everyday and for braver action.
“This year we are asking everyone to make change beginning with brave actions in their daily lives – where they live, work, play and socialise.”

Reconciliation is an ongoing journey that reminds us that while generations of Australians have fought hard for meaningful changes, future gains are likely to take just as much, if not more, effort.
