The RAP also provides practical guidance for how we can achieve our vision to support the voice and ambition of Aboriginal communities through best-practice leadership and role modelling.
In this RAP, we speak of respect, relationships, good governance and opportunities. We also commit to a process of truth-telling to enable learning, healing and change.
We believe Aboriginal history and cultures should sit at the centre of Melbourne’s identity, and that Melbourne should be a truly inclusive city for Aboriginal peoples. As part of our reconciliation commitment, we will be working to close the gaps of disadvantage experienced by Aboriginal peoples since European settlement.
