Independent 4 Flinders acknowledges the Bunurong/Boon Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation, the traditional custodians of the land on which we work, create and gather. We pay our respects to all First Nations people, their Elders past and present, and their enduring connections to Country, knowledge and stories. We remain committed to the invitation of the Uluru Statement from the Heart and its call for voice, truth and treaty. Sovereignty has never been ceded. It always was, and always will be, Aboriginal land.
