The theme of National Reconciliation Week 2020 (27 May - 3 June), ‘In this together’ could actually be the theme for the whole year of 2020. During this year of pandemics, bushfires and hailstorms, we have learnt the power of togetherness, even when we live apart. And while the circumstances of 2020 will hopefully ease soon, longstanding issues like reconciliation still need to be addressed. At its core, reconciliation is about the relationships between the broader Australian community and the nation’s First peoples.
