QUT Council adopted a Reconciliation Statement as University policy on
February 16, 2001. The Reconciliation Statement commits QUT to sustainable reconciliation between Indigenous
(Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples) and non-Indigenous Australian people.
The statement recognises the particular responsibility of educational
institutions to redress disadvantage and to overcome prejudice.
