Reconciliation Action Plan
AWB Co has proudly developed a Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) to reinforce our commitment to Indigenous engagement and reconciliation, which has received formal endorsement.
Strengthening Relationships
Our Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) serves as a framework that guides our efforts in building strong, authentic relationships with Indigenous communities, enhancing educational and employment opportunities and creating culturally safe spaces for collaboration.
Our RAP is more than a commitment; it’s a call to action. It defines how we engage with Indigenous stakeholders, shape our vision for reconciliation and maximise our impact in closing the gap between Non-Indigenous and Indigenous Australians.
Our Commitment To Indigenous Engagement
Through our RAP, we are focusing on:
We provide cultural competency training for our staff to nurture an inclusive and respectful workplace.
We actively support Indigenous participation in our workforce by offering training, mentorship and career development programs.
Collaborating with Indigenous-owned businesses is a priority, helping to foster economic independence and sustainability in Indigenous communities.
We actively engage with Indigenous stakeholders to create strong, lasting partnerships.
We provide employment, training and business opportunities that drive sustainable outcomes.
Our commitment is built on honesty, sensitivity and a deep respect for Aboriginal culture and heritage.
Our Journey Toward Reconciliation
AWB is deeply committed to Reconciliation Australia’s national reconciliation movement and we are continuously working to evolve our RAP from the “Reflect” stage to “Elevate”, ensuring that our efforts lead to real, lasting change.
Over the past few years, we have invested time and resources into better understanding Aboriginal Australia and how we can contribute to meaningful progress. This journey has reinforced both our responsibility and opportunity to support Aboriginal people and communities, striving for long-term social and economic benefits.
