The National Centre for Reconciliation, Truth, and Justice has been launched at Federation University Australia.

The Centre will lead regional and national transformational change across industry, community, and academia, through a rich program of research, education, engagement, outreach, and advocacy activities.

The Centre is led by Associate Deputy Vice-Chancellor Professor Andrew Gunstone, an international expert on academic and industry understandings and engagements on reconciliation.

The Centre was launched at a special event at Federation’s Ballarat Campus (SMB) on March 15 which was attended by guests from across Australia.

The highlight of the event was a panel discussion with Senator Patrick Dodson, Special Envoy for Reconciliation and the Implementation of the Uluru Statement from the Heart, Dr Jackie Huggins AM FAHA, a member of the Federal Government’s Referendum Working and Engagement Groups, and Federation University’s Professor Andrew Gunstone.
