We acknowledge and celebrate the First Australians on whose traditional lands we meet and pay our respect to the elders past and present.
Read more information regarding the ANU acknowledgement of country principles.
Additionally, for larger events, more formal Welcome to Country addresses can be organised, engaging Elders of the land to undertake official acknowledgement ceremonies or smoking ceremonies.
For more information on how to organise these, please check out this guide developed by NCIS to assist in understanding Welcome to Country and Acknowledgement of Country.
