What is the National RAP Conference and Indigenous Governance Awards 2026?
The National RAP Conference and Indigenous Governance Awards 2026 is an annual gathering of people from Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) organisations large and small to collaborate, learn and act on reconciliation.
It provides direction on reconciliation initiatives and the remaining work needed to progress critical areas, especially anti-racism and truth-telling to an ever-growing community of corporates, government agencies, NFPs, education, philanthropic and sporting institutions.
The National RAP Conference and Indigenous Governance Awards 2026 will highlight and celebrate the outstanding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander-led organisations and projects who, through their effective governance models, make extraordinary contributions to communities and Australia more broadly.
Together both events will aim to:
- Amplify the voices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
- Inspire and challenge organisations to increase the impact of their RAPs.
- Promote collaboration and strengthen connections between RAP organisations.
