The Future Ancestors Program acknowledges the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the traditional custodians of so-called Australia.

 

We acknowledge Turrbal and Yaggera country - places on which we gather that have always been enriched by lore, community, culture and identity.

 

We recognise all indigenous people, in particular those from the Pacific and the interwoven history we share with the First Nations people of Australia.
