Summary Note |
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have tirelessly advocated for truth-telling as a crucial step on Australia’s path to recognition and reconciliation. Despite this, there is a gap in existing research about what encourages Australians to engage with truth-telling and and our shared history. The Coming to terms with the past? Identifying barriers and enablers to truth-telling and strategies to promote historical acceptance report steps into this space, aiming to advance our understanding of: what is truth-telling to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and non-Indigenous Australians; the key barriers to and enablers of engagement with truth-telling and First Nations histories, and the implications of these findings for progressing truth-telling in community settings. |
