Our Commitment to Reconciliation

Our Commitment

The Marketing Academy acknowledges and pays respect to the past, present and future Traditional Custodians and Elders of this nation and the continuation of cultural, spiritual and educational practices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples

For The Marketing Academy, our truth telling starts on the traditional land of Car-rang gel / Garangal, Saltwater Country, or North Head.

The Koradgee (Medicine Healers) use this land for spiritual ceremonies, a powerful acknowledgement of the land’s impact.

The Marketing Academy teaches the transformative power of truth telling, through the removal of the masks we all metaphorically wear. We wish to activate the unmasking of the Australian identity and consciousness, through the power of the marketing ecosystem, using the power of story and truth telling, which are central to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Cultures and to leadership success.

We want to create an Australian identity rooted in honesty, empowering Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, promoting mutually respectful and genuine two-way relationships of shared significance throughout our sphere of influence.

We acknowledge the work that needs to be done and the sacred land on which we engage together to create positive change.

Our commitment to Reconciliation is outlined in our RAP above.

We’ve also pulled together an Indigenous Resource Library. This aims to provide our scholars and alumni a starting point to engage with a broad range of amazing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, content and businesses. This list has been pulled together by the TMA RAP Committee and is by no means an exhaustive list.

We encourage you to do your own research and to respectfully build connections and relationships with your local Indigenous culture and representatives.
