Funded Activity Summary

A history of Aboriginal Sydney since 1788. This project will illustrate the complex nature and history of Sydney's Indigenous population. Striking benefits will flow from tracing the historical relationships between the non-Indigenous and Indigenous peoples of the region, particularly in mutual understanding. Reconciliation cannot take place without a full understanding of how the first inhabitants and the newcomers have interacted for more than 200 years. Mutual comprehension will help to build healthy, productive and fulfilling Aboriginal lives. A comprehending and cohesive Australia will be all the stronger to tackle complex social issues within and outside our national borders.
