Home > Programs and Initiatives > Trustbuilding

Learn from traditional wisdom of Australia’s First Peoples and elders, and see our country with fresh eyes. Respond to our nation's need for remembrance, respect, and restoration.

The Trustbuilding Project builds our collective capacity to listen. We create opportunities for truth hearing and truth telling about past and present injustices, as the basis for new understanding. We apply shared principles and values in places where trust has been broken.

Through a three-year Trustbuilding Project, Initiatives of Change (IofC) Australia is working in partnership with First Nations leaders to build relationships of trust and respect between First Nations, mainstream, and migrant communities in Australia.

The Trustbuilding Project works in partnership with First Nations partners, including Uncle Shane Charles, a Yorta Yorta, Wurundjeri and Boon Wurrung man, First Nations community leader and educator, and Co-Chair of Reconciliation Victoria.
