We acknowledge and respect the palawa/pakana peoples of lutruwita (Tasmania) and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples across Australia as the traditional custodians of our shared lands, waters and seas.
We recognise their unique ability to care for Country and their deep spiritual connection with the land, waters and seas – the same land, waters and seas which are a central focus of our profession.
We honour Elders past and present and emerging whose knowledge and wisdom will ensure the continuation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures.
