The museum is committed to contributing to the Calls to Action set out in the Truth and Reconciliation Commission\, specifically numbers 67 to 70 related to museums and archives. We endeavour to increase the representation of important Indigenous histories\, perspectives\, and languages in our Cold War content\, and to ensure respectful interpretation in our spaces.
