SAAFE acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the lands, seas and waters of this Country, and of all areas in which we live and work across Australia. We respect Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples’ deep cultural and spiritual relationship with this land, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present. We acknowledge the diversity of Aboriginal peoples and their knowledge systems. We recognise the concept of One Health (which highlights the integrated nature of human, animal, plant, and environmental health) is not something new to Aboriginal peoples, and that embracing this knowledge and connection to Country is a vital step in the path to reconciliation. SAAFE is respectfully committed to a research program underpinned by the core value of Caring for Country.
