We need your thoughts and ideas to update our Reconciliation Action Plan which will guide Council’s commitment to reconciliation in Wagga Wagga on Wiradyuri Ngurambang.

What is a RAP?

A Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) provides a framework to demonstrate Council’s commitment to our Wiradjuri/Wiradyuri and First Nations community members.

Wagga Wagga City Council is committed to reconciliation and developing meaningful relationships with our Wiradjuri and First Nations Peoples to ensure there is genuine respect and equitable opportunities.
