Reframing the Relationship Plan

Our commitment to reframing the relationship

The Department of Housing and Public Works is committed to improving the socio-economic outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, as outlined in the National Agreement on Closing the Gap.

Our collective efforts and responsibility as individuals, communities and governments will ensure equity, recognition and advancement of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in Queensland across all aspects of society.

Our Reframing the Relationship Plan

Our Reframing the Relationship Plan 2023–24 (PDF, 294.5 KB) is a living document that identifies measures for enhancing our cultural safety and capability as we provide advice to government and deliver services to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities.

This plan will support a reframed relationship with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples based on fairness, inclusivity, dignity and belonging. The plan also recognises the role of public sector entities in supporting a reframed relationship and developing cultural capability.

The Reframing the Relationship Plan outlines specific actions and commitments across these focus areas:

  • Fair and inclusive, with dignity and belonging
  • Cultural capability and safety
  • Workforce and leadership
  • Aims, aspirations and employment
  • Partnerships and decision-making
  • Self-determination
  • Recognition and honouring
  • Truth-telling.
