I acknowledge the Widjabal-Wiabal Clan of the Bundjalung Nation of which land I reside on and pay my deepest respects to Elders and Ancestors of past, present and emerging. Sovereignty was never ceded.

Thank you to Indigenous people from around the world who have cared for these lands, kept the waters clean, the air pure and the soils fertile. Thank you to all Earth Custodians who walk with respect and grace.
