🌏 National Reconciliation Week | 27 May – 3 June 🖤💛❤️

At Imparja Television, we acknowledge National Reconciliation Week as a time for all Australians to reflect, learn, and take meaningful steps toward a more just, equitable, and reconciled nation.

This year's theme, "Now More Than Ever," is a powerful reminder that no matter the progress we've made, reconciliation is a journey that requires ongoing commitment from all of us. It calls on everyone to keep speaking up, standing up, and showing up — for truth-telling, for historical recognition, and for real change.

We stand with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in the spirit of respect, unity, and shared responsibility. We encourage our community to engage in conversations, listen deeply, and take action — because reconciliation is everyone’s business.
