The National Reconciliation Week (NRW) 2025 theme, Bridging Now to Next, reflects the ongoing connection between past, present and future.

At a time when Australia faces uncertainty in its reconciliation journey, this theme calls on all Australians to step forward together.

Bridging Now to Next urges us to look ahead and continue the push forward as past lessons guide us.

This is a self-directed activity - just drop in.
