Council Establishes a Reflect – Reconciliation Action Plan

Published on 22 May 2024

Goulburn Mulwaree Council is proud to announce the establishment of a Reflect - Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) as part of its commitment to advancing reconciliation in our local area.

A Reflect RAP, provides time to build relationships, listen to the community and establish solid foundations for growth and increasing ambition. The scope for a Reflect RAP is as follows:

• Reflect RAPs are for 12 months and are right if your organisation is new to reconciliation and unsure how to get started.
• They set out steps to prepare your organisation for reconciliation initiatives in future RAPs.
• Committing to a Reflect RAP means scoping and developing relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander stakeholders, deciding on your vision for reconciliation and exploring your sphere of influence.

Endorsed by Council on May 21, 2024, the Goulburn Mulwaree Council Reflect RAP is designed to create a safe environment for First Nations People, celebrate their cultures, and promote reconciliation internally. This initiative is in alignment with Reconciliation Australia's RAP Framework, offering a structured approach to reconciliation.

Council is excited to embark on this journey towards reconciliation and looks forward to building strong relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander stakeholders.
