Spinal Cord Injuries Australia (SCIA) acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of this land where the First Nation Peoples have long engaged in ceremonies of storytelling, music, dance, and celebration. We pay respect to the Elders, past and present, and recognise those of the future, who will carry the memories, traditions, and aspirations of First Nation Peoples. It is crucial to remember that beneath the concrete and asphalt, this land always has been and always will be traditional First Nation Peoples’ Land. We acknowledge the contributions of both First Nation Peoples and non-First Nation Australians towards building and advancing a sustainable future, promoting health, reducing inequalities, and achieving better social outcomes.
