This plan is a living document based on consultations undertaken between MRTRG and Traditional Owners, First Nations people living in the Macedon Ranges Shire, Yoorrook Justice commission staff and local stakeholders during 2023 and 2024. The document is designed to evolve and change based on engagement with stakeholders.
Welcome to The Macedon Ranges Truth & Reconciliation Group
We aim to promote deeper understanding, respect and justice for and with First Nations Peoples in the Macedon Ranges Shire. We also aim to become more aware, respectful and understanding of the First Nations cultures, knowledge, experience and country. We understand that all members of our community will gain from greater knowledge and understanding of Dja Dja Wurrung, Taungurung & Wurundjeri cultures, country and our shared histories.
We serve to strengthen First Nations People’s right to self-determination, equal voice and equality of opportunity and outcomes while promoting a Central Victorian identity that reflects our true history and celebrates diverse culture in relational reconciliation.
