National Reconciliation Week 2022

In Australia we stand on Aboriginal land – always was, always will be. We recognise the sovereignty, the connection, and the knowledge of Traditional Owners and we pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging. We know our science is stronger if approached in the ‘right way’, with respect, sharing of knowledge, listening, and learning.
