 I commit to making ANU the national leader in the reconciliation of Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians through our students, our staff and the research and education that we all do. I commit to increasing my understanding of Indigenous cultures and viewpoints and encourage those around me to do the same. Understanding our past and moving forward with a shared understanding of this past is an important part of reconciliation. I commit to being aware of my own implicit and explicit biases and trying to better understand the diverse histories of Indigenous students at ANU. I commit to ANU being chosen by Indigenous students throughout Australia as the preferred university to undertake the study and completion of degrees. I'm committed to research that contributes to the economic, social, cultural and environmental well-being of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. I commit to undertaking research that is respectful to country and to the diverse Indigenous peoples, cultures and knowledge of that country. Reconciliation, it's a journey, not a destination. So let us all here at the ANU lead this journey together. Reconciliation, get on board. It's something we have to do because it's the right thing to do.
