"This is our first Reconciliation Action Plan, a guiding document that will help us make practical steps towards reconciliation within Council and our wider community," said City of Canada Bay Mayor Angelo Tsirekas.
"Reconciliation is an action as well as a goal, and we are in a unique position to lead our community towards reconciliation through education, programs, policies, and celebrations."
The City of Canada Bay is committed to recognising and celebrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and the heritage of its area, and in particular the Wangal people of the Eora nation.
Developed in consultation with First Nations peoples and organisations, the plan includes over 50 actions Council will take to progress reconciliation; based on the themes of relationships, respect, opportunities, and governance.
The City of Canada Bay invites the community to view the plan and share their thoughts at Collaborate Canada Bay by Wednesday, 17 May.
