Plan International Australia acknowledges the people of the Kulin Nation as the custodians of the land on which our office stands. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging. We recognise the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' ongoing connection to land, waters and community and believe our nation has a lot to learn from First Nations' approaches to caring for country and for each other. Sovereignty was never ceded. We honour the enduring resilience and resistance of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and we stand in solidarity with the Uluru Statement from the Heart. We support its call to enshrine a First Nations' voice in the Australian constitution and establish a Makarrata Commission. We commit to act in solidarity with Australia's First Peoples to build a shared future where we can all thrive.
