Each year, Reconciliation Tasmania hosts events during National Reconciliation Week that bring people together to reflect, listen deeply and take meaningful steps towards a more just and respectful future in Lutruwita / Tasmania.

The Launceston on Kanamaluka / River Tamar National Reconciliation Week Breakfast forms part of this statewide program, welcoming community members, leaders, organisations and government representatives to listen, learn and reflect together.

Grounded in truth-telling and truth-listening, the breakfast centres Tasmanian Aboriginal voices, lived experiences and perspectives. Speakers share powerful and deeply personal stories that challenge assumptions, encourage reflection and inspire meaningful action. While these conversations can at times be confronting, they are essential to building understanding and supporting lasting change.

In 2025, more than 1,500 people attended events across the state, marking the most significant program to date. The 2026 breakfast continues to build on this momentum, creating space for important conversations and encouraging participants to consider the role they can play in advancing reconciliation.

Reconciliation Tasmania works alongside Tasmanian Aboriginal people to support truth, justice and a better future through education, leadership and advocacy. These gatherings strengthen relationships and provide an opportunity for individuals and organisations to engage in reflection and take practical steps forward.
