Reconciliation at Metro

Metro is committed to strengthening relationships

We acknowledge there is still much progress to be made.

Metro first formalised its commitment to reconciliation in July 2019 by launching its first Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP), signalling a more considered and deliberate reconciliation effort. A second RAP was released in 2022 as Metro continued its commitment to promoting and supporting First Peoples culture and relationships.

Metro is currently developing its first Self-Determination Plan. The Self-Determination Plan will align with the Victorian Government approach, which acknowledges that First Peoples hold the knowledge and expertise of what is best for themselves, their families, and their communities.

The Self-Determination Plan will be closely aligned with the Department of Transport and Planning’s Aboriginal Self-Determination plan, which was developed with valuable feedback from local First Peoples communities.

This new self-determination approach will build on the work done under our previous Reconciliation Action Plans.

Metro partners with and sources from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander owned businesses and organisations, as a way to demonstrate its commitment to reconciliation. Find out more about our partners.
