ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY

We acknowledge the Mumirimina People who lived on and cared for this Country and experienced the devastating impact of invasion/colonisation. We pay respects to their Elders past. We acknowledge the palawa of lutruwita/Tasmania and the Tasmanian Aboriginal Community and their ongoing connection to Country and custodianship of the land, seas and waters east of nipaluna (Hobart), between kutalayna (Jordan River) and mutatayna (South Arm).

We pay respects to all Elders and knowledge holders and acknowledge their continued practice and sharing of knowledge and culture.

We acknowledge that throughout Australia, sovereignty was never ceded.

We acknowledge the significance of developing on unceded land, and that this opportunity is gained from devastating loss. We are committed to working to heal these wounds through collaborating with Aboriginal people as we imagine and realise new places that hold space for these stories, connect with ancient cultural landscapes, and allow Aboriginal people to realise their aspirations and continued connection with Country.
