Conservia acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we work and gather. We pay our respects to Elders past, present, and emerging, and recognise their continued care and contribution to Country.
Our journey towards reconciliation is guided by our Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP), which lays the foundation for future initiatives and builds a sustainable path forward.
Innovative RAP Report
Reconciliation Action Plan
We have taken several steps toward better cultural understanding and engagement. These include participating in cultural awareness training, engaging with local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities through various channels including project sites, and incorporating Indigenous perspectives into our project planning and execution. With the formalisation of our RAP, we aim to build on these foundational efforts and establish a structured pathway for deepening our engagement and support for reconciliation.
We have a dedicated internal team that focuses on developing and implementing our Reflect RAP, ensuring that our commitments to reconciliation are actioned and measured. The intent of making our CEO the champion of this movement is to ensure that the commitment and actions come from top down. Through these efforts, we aim to foster a workplace environment that not only acknowledges but actively supports the reconciliation process, ensuring that our practices align with our values of diversity, inclusion, and respect. These activities are part of our ongoing commitment to contribute positively to the communities we operate in and to build meaningful relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
Our RWG have conducted assessments to identify registered/certified supplier nations with whom we can engage, and we have already initiated collaborations with some of them. Additionally, we have developed a comprehensive business case outlining the social and operational benefits of implementing our RAP. Furthermore, we have actively participated in local forums and engaged with communities to kickstart our involvement in the reconciliation process.
