Acknowledgement

We acknowledge and pay our respects to all First Nations peoples who are the Traditional Custodians of the continent of Australia and its waters.

We recognise the practical relevance of Indigenous wisdom to the concepts of living collaboratively, caring for the land and regenerating ecological systems. This project seeks to merge new knowledge and technologies with the tradition of land custodianship practiced by communities throughout this continent for thousands of years.
