ACFID’s Reconciliation Journey

Artwork designed by Richie Allan Ngunnawal Kamilaroi, entitled 'The Dreaming'

ACFID’s commitment to diversity, inclusion and equality are realised through our vision, purpose and values. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander rights, recognition and reconciliation are vital to the work of ACFID and its members as we work towards a world free from injustice and inequality.

ACFID Secretariat is guided by Reconciliation Australia’s RAP Framework and is inspired by the ACFID Council who passed Resolution No. 1/2017.

ACFID and its members stand in solidarity with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples for Makarrata – “the coming together after a struggle” – through truth, justice, healing and agreement making, and support the aims and aspirations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples for substantive constitutional reform.
