National Reconciliation Week CBF acknowledgement of country
Channel: Community Broadcasting Foundation
Date: 2020-05-27

In National Reconciliation Week, the Community Broadcasting Foundation is proud to acknowledge and support our First Nations broadcasters and stations and First Nations Media Australia, who tell the stories of Australia - in language and on country.

This year's Reconciliation theme, #InThisTogether, asks us all to acknowledge the lands that we live and work on - which has resonated strongly with the CBF team and our President, Ian Hamm.

Ian is first and foremost a Yorta Yorta man and this week - also marking National Sorry Day on May 26th to acknowledge the injustice experienced by members of the Stolen Generation - is particularly profound.

Ian is also a stolen child.

In Ian's words: "The CBF is an important partner in National Reconciliation Week. It's an important week and an important day for all us to share who we are, what we're about and how we can make a greater future together."
