Our RAP
“Reconciliation requires us to question ourselves, our assumptions and our bias. It demands that we acknowledge the history of dispossession, colonisation and the ongoing impacts of those experienced by First Nations people and my colleagues at work with me.
Reconciliation is not a destination, it’s a continuous process that demands vigilance, humility and a willingness to face uncomfortable truths. It means ensuring that our services are culturally safe, accessible and responsive, but it also means standing up for the rights of First Nations people in a broader social, political and legal context.
True Reconciliation requires sustainable effort, humanity and the courage to confront difficult truths and traits.”

“It can be difficult to put a feeling into words – to make a commitment with passion and intent – to make words dance off the page so that they cannot be ignored. We hope that with Knowmore’s first REFLECT Reconciliation Action Plan, we can do that. We intend it to embody our deeply held commitment to adding our voice to a journey of national reconciliation and
healing.”
Jackie Mead, Knowmore CEO
