'Respecting Connections' (2023) by Nakia Cadd, a Gunditjmara, Yorta Yorta, Dja Dja Wurrung, Bunitj, Boon Wurrung, Taungurung woman who grew up in the Northern suburbs of Melbourne. ‘When thinking about acknowledging Country, it's about respecting those many different connections; to the land, sky, waters, animals, people and stories.’
Acknowledgement of Country
In the spirit of reconciliation, sml.med.LRG. acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the lands where we work and live, the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Bunurong Peoples of the Kulin Nation in Melbourne, and the Turrbal and Jagera Peoples in Brisbane. We recognise their continuing connection to land, waters, and community.
We pay our respects to Elders past, present, and emerging, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
