Reconciliation NSW acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of Country across all lands and waters now known as New South Wales. We pay our deepest respects to Elders past and present and extend that respect to all First Nations peoples who continue to nurture culture, community, and connection.

We honour the enduring sovereignty of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, whose stories, languages, and knowledge systems have shaped this land for countless generations. Their custodianship is not a legacy of the past – it is a living, ongoing truth.

As an organisation committed to truth-telling, justice, and reconciliation, we recognise that meaningful change begins with listening, learning, and walking together. We stand in solidarity with First Nations communities and commit to amplifying their voices, protecting cultural integrity, and embedding First Nations leadership at the heart of everything we do.

May this acknowledgement be more than words, may it guide our actions, deepen our relationships, and strengthen our shared journey toward a just and reconciled future.
