Acknowledgement of Country
ASAL acknowledges the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples as the traditional owners and sovereign peoples of the unceded lands, skies and waters of Australia. We honour and respect the enduring knowledge and rich cultures of First Nations peoples, the original and continuing storytellers of Country. As an organisation, we recognise the privilege it is to live, work and gather on Country, and commit to the work of truth telling as an essential foundation to all we do.
