This year's National Reconciliation Week (NRW) theme, "Bridging Now to Next," emphasises the ongoing connection between past, present, and future. It calls on all Australians to step forward together, to look ahead, and to continue the push forward as past lessons guide us .

At ECU, we are committed to fostering an inclusive environment that respects and celebrates Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures. NRW provides an opportunity to strengthen our commitment to reconciliation by engaging in meaningful conversations and actions.
