Yuma ! ACT Environmental Educators!  National Reconciliation Week 2022 (27 MAY TO 3 JUNE)"BE BRAVE. MAKE CHANGE." This is the first year of AAEE Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP). What can we do here in ACT? This Thursday( June 2) during Reconciliation Week we will hold our monthly Executive meeting and brainstorm ideas for our Chapter. I will be brave and give the Acknowledgement of Country in Ngunawal for the first time at an AAEE meeting. Thank you to Tyronne Bell, Ngunawal custodian and ANBG education for making this possible. If you have ideas for our Chapter, email us at aaeeact@gmail.com, if you would like to attend discussion (online),this Thursday afternoon, let us know and we will send you the link. I hope to share our ideas in the June AAEE national publication OzEE News, sharing with other environmental educators interstate is always a great idea. The National Reconciliation Week 2022 theme, “Be Brave. Make Change.” is a challenge to all Australians— individuals, families, communities, organisations, and government—to Be Brave and tackle the unfinished business of reconciliation so we can Make Change for the benefit of all Australians. This year we are asking everyone to make change beginning with brave actions in their daily lives – where they live, work, play and socialise.

National Reconciliation Week is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements, and to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia.
