2015 Queensland Reconcilliation Awards guidelines

2015 Queensland
Reconciliation Awards
Guidelines
Respect. Recognition. Reconciliation.
Message from our Ambassador
I am delighted that 2015 will be the third year I have had the privilege
of taking on the role of Awards Ambassador for the Queensland
Reconciliation Awards.
As we look to the future of Queensland and Australia, we should
all be striving to nurture reconciliation within our families, workplaces,
schools, sporting clubs and communities. It is this desire that motivates
me to continue as the Ambassador for this important program.
Reconciliation is deeply personal to me, not just as a proud
Indigenous man, but as a Queenslander, a community member and
most importantly, as a family man. I believe we can all play a part to
bridge the gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians.
These awards honour not only those who are championing the message
of reconciliation, but those who are actually making a difference.
Each year the projects and initiatives recognised through this program
demonstrate to us the positive impact that reconciliation has in local
communities, and also the change it can inspire in others.
It is through the work and dedication of many organisations, from
multi-national partnerships to community projects, local government
and educational institutions, we will see the lasting impacts of fostering
reconciliation for years to come. When we recognise those who are
supporting reconciliation, we are able to create a positive environment
and an open dialogue about the importance and power of this issue.
Nominations are now open for the awards. I encourage you to nominate
your organisation, or pass this on to an organisation you know that is
doing great work that you think should be celebrated.
I look forward to being involved in another successful year of these
awards and learning more about the work being done in our communities
to foster reconciliation.
Johnathan Thurston
Queensland Reconciliation Awards Ambassador

magistrate Sue Gordon, above,
has been announced as
chairwoman of the new National
Indigenous Council (NIC), the
Government-appointed body which
effectively replaces the Aboriginal and
Torres Strait Islander Commission.
Fourteen prominent Indigenous people,
including Australian Labor Party national
vice-president Warren Mundine, make up
the NIC.
Indigenous Affairs Minister Amanda
Vanstone said of the council: “These are
people who’ve got skills pertinent to what
the problems are – health, education,
safety – and also people with skills
pertinent to where the opportunities are
for economic development.”

Indigenous communities across

told Koori Mail that the
Government was looking
for increased mutual

welfare changes as ‘big brotherish’.

was the first of 15 highdependency renal patients
to return home for a threeweek holiday with her family, a visit
many thought she would never be able
to make.
Four years ago, the people of the
Western Desert came up with an
ambitious plan to build one of the most
remote self-treatment dialysis facilities
in the world. All they needed was a
million dollars, an appropriate health
centre, a couple of renal nurses and a
whole lot of government support.
The opening of the facility is a major
achievement for the Western Desert
community where the incidence of
kidney failure is 40 times the national
average and among the highest in the
world.
Just last year, a 27-year-old mother
chose to die rather than make the
500km journey to Alice Springs for
treatment and leave her two-year-old
child behind.

himself only days before the army
investigated the incident.
In early 2003, almost three
years after the incident, the
soldier attempted suicide in his

Meanwhile, the Delta
