Knowing better, doing better - Reconciliation News out now!
This edition spotlights the educators, communities and young leaders who are knowing better, doing better and driving reconciliation forward.
www.reconciliation.org.auI don’t currently have live updates to pull in this moment, but here’s a concise overview of National Reconciliation Week (NRW) and guidance on where to find the latest news.
What NRW is
- National Reconciliation Week runs from 27 May to 3 June each year and marks the anniversary of the 1967 referendum and the High Court Mabo decision.[5]
- The theme changes annually and calls all Australians to reflect, learn, and take action toward stronger relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.[5]
Where to find the latest news
- Reconciliation Australia’s NRW pages and their news/updates sections typically publish the most current national information, events, and resources for all Australians.[5]
- Australian state and territory education and government sites (e.g., NSW Education, Reconciliation Victoria) frequently post event calendars, school activities, and local NRW happenings.[1][4]
- News outlets and specialized aggregators compile NRW-related coverage around the NRW dates, including community events, ceremonies, and public statements.[2]
Quick tips to stay updated
- Check NRW-specific pages in late May for official themes, event listings, and partner programs.
- Look for local council or library events in your area (Marseille-based residents can also check French cultural organizations that collaborate with Indigenous associations for related commemorations, though NRW is Australia-focused).
- Search for media releases or “NRW 2026” updates to confirm the latest theme and featured activities.
