Business Summary
Cardinia Shire is located on the traditional lands of the Bunurong/Boon Wurrung and Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation. We acknowledge the historic and continuing link of the Aboriginal people to the land through our Reconciliation Action Plan and via the Acknowledgement of Traditional Owners delivered at civic events. Our first Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) was adopted in June 2015. It outlined the practical actions that Council would take to drive greater equality, build strong relationships, and enhance respect between Aboriginal people, Council, and the Cardinia Shire community. Our second Reconciliation Action Plan builds on the vision and ambitions of our first RAP by focusing our efforts on further developing valuable relationships and opportunities through partnership with our local Traditional Owners, Aboriginal controlled organisations and services, and the local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community.
