Abstract

It has been a pleasure to again co-chair the working group that supported the development of the Menzies 2020-2022 Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP). -- Our 2014-2016 RAP was an opportunity for Menzies to enhance and expand on the commitment it has shown to providing opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Our first RAP also provided a chance for Menzies to strengthen our relationships with key stakeholders and organisations. -- In this new Innovate RAP, we want to demonstrate our continued commitment to longer-term employment and engagement strategies, and working towards greater defined targets and goals. Developing our Innovate RAP was not without challenges. It forced us to reflect deeply on our progress as an institution in relation to our earlier RAP and acknowledge that there is much more to be done. I extend my sincere thanks to the RAP working group who helped guide Menzies through this process. There were some wonderfully enlightening experiences to come out of the RAP development process. Of particular note was my discussion with talented Darwin artist, Norma Benger, who designed the Menzies RAP artwork which features on the front cover. The design, which is described in detail on page 1, reflects the RAP agenda, focusing on respect, relationships, opportunities, partnerships and pathways. Importantly, it also reflects the good work Menzies is doing to address health inequalities, build capabilities and walk together with our partners towards a shared vision for a healthy future. -- page 3,
