A central reference point for a whole-of-society approach to eliminating racism in Australia, this framework will influence all levels of government and community partnerships for the next ten years. The report observes that systemic and structural racism are deeply embedded in Australian society and require a comprehensive and coordinated response. 

The report provides 63 recommendations for transformative change across various sectors, including the justice and legal system, health, education, workplaces, media and the arts, and data. The recommendations outline legislative reform, funding for anti-racism initiatives, and the development of national standards and guidelines to actively address the root causes of systemic and structural racism.

Overarching recommendations
