National Reconciliation Week: 27 May – 3 June 2024
National Reconciliation Week (NRW) 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.
The National Reconciliation Week theme for 2024, Now More Than Ever, is a reminder to all of us that no matter what, the fight for justice and the rights of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people will — and must — continue.
什么是“和解”？
和解是澳大利亚强化原住民和托雷斯海峡岛民与非原住民族关系的重要议程，是有益所有澳大利亚人的行动。
对原住民和托雷斯海峡岛民来说，澳大利亚的殖民统治历史充斥着肆意掠夺土地、血腥暴力和种族歧视的不正义。
在过去的半个世纪中，我们的和解之路实现了多个重要的里程碑。
但是我们不能忘记，和解是一个持续的旅程。数代澳大利亚人的呕心沥血换来了富有意义的变化，然而要实现美好的未来需要所有人越发努力，付出更多。
全国和解周
全国和解周（National Reconciliation Week）是了解我们共有的历史、文化和成就的时刻，也是每个人思索如何为在澳大利亚实现和解作出贡献的时刻。
全国和解周每年5月27日至6月3日举行。
5月27日是1967年澳大利亚全体公民投票周年纪念日。这次公投废除了宪法中歧视原住民和托雷斯海峡岛民的法律和条例。
6月3日是纪念1992年澳大利亚最高法院宣布马博案（Mabo）裁决的日子。这项具有里程碑意义的裁决承认原住民和托雷斯海峡岛民尽管受到英国殖民统治但是依然持有对土地的所有权。
每年全国和解周期间，数以千计的工作场所、学校、幼儿早教机构、大学、地方政府议会、社区团体和个人都会以各种形式举行私人或公开的纪念活动。
2024年主题
#NRW2024主题为“当务之急”（Now More Than Ever），以此提醒我们每个人，无论阻碍重重，原住民和托雷斯海峡岛民争取正义和权利的斗争将会——也必须——继续下去。
和解尚未实现，现在比以往任何时候更加需要我们奋力投身其中。我们知道，620万名投“YES”一票的澳大利亚人将始终与我们并肩而立，致力为原住民族人民创造更好的结果。
在澳大利亚走向和解的漫漫长途中，曾有很多时刻让我们想要放弃。但是，面对分歧，脱离或中断沟通只能导致隔阂不断加深。
和解事业的支持者此时此刻比以往任何时候更加需要为捍卫和维护原住民族人民的权利挺身而出。无论何时何地，让我们敢于大声谴责任何形式的种族主义，以积极行动加强这片大陆上的原住民和托雷斯海峡岛民的声音。
缔结条约、讲述真相、理解我们的历史、教育公众、打击种族主义，当务之急是我们需要振作前行。我们需要联系；我们需要尊重；我们需要行动；我们需要改变。
现在比以往任何时候更加需要和解。
