Reconciliation Queensland Inc. (RQI) is embarking on a significant new chapter, and we're looking for dedicated people to help guide our journey. As Queensland’s peak body for reconciliation, RQI works toward a united Queensland that respects this land, values the heritage of our First Peoples, and strives for justice and equity for all. 


Now is your chance to contribute to this vital mission by nominating for our Management Committee.

Your Opportunity to Lead Change


We're seeking passionate individuals from all backgrounds who are committed to advancing reconciliation across the state. The Management Committee is a diverse, multicultural body that welcomes both First Nations and non-First Nations members.


In this period of growth, we're particularly keen to expand the Committee with more emerging Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander leaders, while continuing to value all the diverse perspectives and lived experiences that strengthen our work.


You don't need prior board experience—just a willingness to contribute, collaborate, and uphold the values of RQI.
