We acknowledge.

FYA would like to acknowledge the custodians of the land throughout Australia on whose unceded countries we conduct our business. We pay our respects to their elders past, present and emerging, for they hold the memories, the traditions, the culture and hopes of Indigenous Australia. We acknowledge that Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people continue to live in spiritual and sacred relationships with this country.
