26 May 🥺26th May 2023 is National Sorry Day.

National Sorry Day, or the National Day of Healing, is an annual event that has been held in Australia on 26 May since 1998. The event remembers and commemorates the mistreatment of the country’s Indigenous peoples, as part of an ongoing process of reconciliation between the Indigenous peoples of Australia 🇦🇺and the settler population. It gives Australians a chance to come together and share the steps towards healing for The Stolen Generations, their families and communities. The “Stolen Generations” refer to Indigenous Australians who were forcibly removed from their families and communities.

It is observed before National Reconciliation Week, which is a time for all Australians to learn about their shared histories, cultures, achievements and to explore how each Australian can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia. Reconciliation must live in the hearts, minds and actions of all Australians as they move forward, creating a nation strengthened by respectful relationships between the wider Australian community, and Aboriginal and Torres Straits Islander peoples.
