The Council for Aboriginal Reconciliation (CAR), created by the government for a term of ten years, laid the foundations for the process, and created the peak body for implementation of reconciliation as a government policy, Reconciliation Australia, in 2001.

Anglican Board Of Mission – Australia
The Anglican Board of Mission – Australia (ABM), formerly Australasian Board of Missions and Australian Board of Missions, is the national mission agency of the Anglican Church of Australia. In its earliest form, it was established in 1850. History The Church of the Province of New Zealand was not formed until 1858. In 1850, George Selwyn, the Bishop of New Zealand, approached his fellow Australasian bishops for funds to buy a boat for evangelisation of the islands of Melanesia, which then formed part of his diocese by virtue of a clerical error in the letters patent. That missionary endeavour became the Melanesian Mission, but also led to the establishment of the Australasian Board of Missions. In 1872 (by which time New Zealand was a separate province) the Australasian Board of Missions was constituted as a board of the church by a canon of General Synod. At that point the board changed its name to the Australian Board of Missions. It was only in 1872 that an administ ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
