The Healthy Forests Foundation respectfully acknowledges Aboriginal people as the First Peoples and Traditional Custodians of the land and water on which we rely. We also pay our respects to ancestors and Elders, past, present and emerging.

First Nations people have actively cared for and managed Australian landscapes for millennia. The Healthy Forests Foundation is committed to tangible partnerships with First Nations people to ensure their Knowledge influences our practices and that our activities reinforce their Custodianship and assist them in caring for Country.
