The Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) program provides a framework for organisations to support the national reconciliation movement. RAPs are strategic documents that support an organisation’s business plan by including practical actions that will drive contribution to reconciliation both internally and in the communities in which it operates.

Tourism Australia’s Reconciliation Action Plan aims to create strong and productive relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, so we can contribute meaningfully to ‘closing the gap’. It is also designed to increase demand for Indigenous tourism experiences by improving trade and consumer awareness of their quality and diversity. When we introduced our plan, Tourism Australia was the first Commonwealth government agency to achieve Reconciliation Australia’s Stretch RAP level, which involved setting long-term strategies and goals for our activities. The RAP is currently under review.
