Almost three decades on from a landmark report on the Stolen Generations, advocates say much more needs to be done to support survivors and acknowledge the trauma they endured.
Tuesday is National Sorry Day, held annually on May 26 to remember and honour the many thousands of Indigenous children forcibly removed from their families from 1910 to 1970.
On February 13, 2008, then-prime minister Kevin Rudd made a formal apology to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, particularly the Stolen Generations.
