Ngadlu tampinthi Kaurna miyurna yaitya yarta-mathanya Wama.

Tarntanyaku, ngadluku piipawarpulayi kuu Kaurna yartangka tikanthi.

 

We acknowledge the Kaurna people of the Adelaide Plains as the traditional owners of the land on which our office sits.

We pay our respect to all First Nations cultures, and to Elders past and present. 

We recognise that this land was never ceded or surrendered by the Traditional Owners and acknowledge the continuing connection to land, waters, and community since the first sunrise.

Our Logo

Our Logo represents the five dimensions of reconciliation, Unity, Race Relations, Equality and Equity, Historical Acceptance, and Institutional Integrity and our vision and purpose as an organisation.

The large pink dot in the centre represents Unity, signifying that Reconciliation South Australia values and recognises First Nations culture and heritage as a proud part of shared identity. The smaller pink dots in the logo represent Race Relations between First Nations and Non-Indigenous people based on trust, respect and freedom from racism. Swirling around the outside of these elements are blue and red swirls representing Equality and Equity, demonstrating the range of equal participation in the life opportunities Reconciliation South Australia will advocate for, recognise and uphold.

Surrounding Unity is a large red circle representing Historical Acceptance. Through Reconciliation South Australia speaking the truth, it signifies the importance of acknowledging and addressing historical truths by accepting the wrongs of the past and ensuring these wrongs aren’t repeated. The purple swirl on top represents Institutional Integrity, showing our active support of reconciliation of South Australia’s political, business and community structures.

The black symbolic map of South Australia represents where our stakeholders and partners are located across the state, demonstrating the reach and scope of our work. The overall design reaches outside the state boundary and into the waters, reflecting First Nations culture and communities reach beyond our State and are connected to a time rich in history and culture.
