Coming to terms with the past? Truth-telling report Launch Webinar

On Thursday 18 April, the University of New South Wales and Reconciliation Australia launched the 'Coming to terms with the past? Identifying barriers and enablers to truth-telling and strategies to promote historical acceptance' report.
The report finds significant gaps in the understanding of truth-telling between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and non-Indigenous Australians. It also highlights the need to carefully consider the aims of community truth-telling initiatives, establish protocols for safe and inclusive events, and build truth-telling and truth-listening capacity among participants.

The report was authored by Anne Maree Payne and Heidi Norman from the Indigenous Land and Justice Research Group, part of the UNSW School of Humanities & Languages.
The launch webinar was hosted by Dr Penny Taylor and featured guest speakers Karen Mundine, CEO of Reconciliation Australia, Professor Leanne Holt, inaugural UNSW Deputy Vice-Chancellor Indigenous, Tess Meehan and Uncle Gary Matthews.
