A new report shows nearly 14,000 Indigenous Australians have gained jobs in the past 18 months with support from a program run jointly by the Gillard Government and Reconciliation Australia. The Gillard Government has invested $10.8 million over three years to help Reconciliation Australia continue education and awareness programs to build the relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. Reconciliation Action Plans recognise that all Australians can work together to build a better future for Indigenous Australians and underscore the vital role business and corporations can play in helping to increase job opportunities.
