National Reconciliation Week at CIT 2022

You are invited to attend National Reconciliation Week events at CIT from Friday 27 May to Thursday 2 June. This year 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 is a time to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements. Events across CIT campuses include a Welcome to Country, Smoking Ceremony, snacks with Indigenous themes, painting, a Reconciliation treasure hunt and a plant identification and tree planting stand. We will also be running free Introduction to Cultural Awareness workshops after the main celebrations to encourage the community to "Be Brave. Make Change.".

We encourage all students, staff and members of the community to join us for one or all of our events:
