We acknowledge that Enabling Independence operates on the traditional lands of the Kaurna people and that we respect their spiritual relationship with their country.

 

We also acknowledge the Kaurna people as the custodians of the Adelaide region and that their cultural and heritage beliefs are still as important to the living Kaurna people today.

We acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded, and we pay our respects to the cultural authority of Aboriginal people visiting/attending from other areas of South Australia and Australia.
