We acknowledge and respect Victorian Traditional Owners as the original
custodians of Victoria’s land and waters, their unique ability to care for
Country and deep spiritual connection to it. We honour Elders past and present
whose knowledge and wisdom has ensured the continuation of culture and
traditional practices.

We are committed to genuinely partner, and meaningfully engage, with Victoria’s
Traditional Owners and Aboriginal communities to support the protection of
Country, the maintenance of spiritual and cultural practices and their broader
aspirations in the 21st century and beyond.
