Acknowledgement

We acknowledge the lands on which we work and live, including the lands of the Wurundjeri, Bunurong, Gadigal, Ngunnawal, Darug and Wadawurrung people. We pay our respect to Elders of those lands, both past and present. We recognise that this land always was and always will be Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander land because sovereignty has never been ceded. We acknowledge the role of the colonial legal system in establishing, entrenching, and continuing the oppression and injustice experienced by First Nations peoples and that we have a responsibility to work in solidarity with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to undo this.
