Acknowledgement of Country

The University of Melbourne and the sites listed on this website are located on unceded land belonging to the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Boonwurrung peoples of the Kulin nation, and we pay our respects to the traditional custodians of the land. As students of the University of Melbourne, we benefit from the continued effects of colonisation. We also recognise that decolonisation is a necessary and active process all must participate in, and we hope that the Native Garden Project can highlight ways that our communities have and can contribute to the physical decolonisation of the land. This always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
