Norton Rose Fulbright and the University of Queensland’s Justice and the Law Society invite you to a panel discussion on the power of truth-telling. What it means, what it seeks to achieve, and its vital role in advancing First Nations justice, healing and reconciliation.Our three distinguished panellists Joshua Creamer, Dr Ivan Ingram and Professor Tracey Bunda, bring deep personal and professional experience, as well as having each been involved in Queensland's Truth-telling and Healing Inquiry. Together, they will explore topics such as the relationship between truth-telling and justice, the power of First Nations storytelling and historical knowledge, trauma-aware and healing-informed practice, and what it takes to turn acknowledgement into meaningful change.
Truth-telling is not new and it’s not about division. First Nations peoples and communities have long shared their histories of colonisation, dispossession, resistance and survival - inviting non-Indigenous Australians to listen, learn and take part. From community-led events and cultural practices to formal inquiries such as Queensland's Truth-telling and Healing Inquiry and Victoria's Yoorrook Justice Commission, truth-telling builds a deeper shared understanding of our past, and in doing so, brings us closer together.
Truth-telling is a collective responsibility. We warmly welcome you to join this important conversation.
