APAC acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Peoples of this nation. We pay our respects to Elders, past and present, as the Traditional Owners of the lands on which we work and live. Our office is on the land of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation in Naarm/Melbourne and we thank them for their enduring and continuing contribution to the life of this place. We recognise that First Peoples’ sovereignty was never ceded.
