Respecting our nation’s heritage
Spaceful acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples of this nation as the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which our company is located and where we conduct our business. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.
Spaceful is committed to honouring Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ unique cultural and spiritual relationships to the land, waters and seas and their rich contribution to society.
As a business with a tangible connection to land, it is our responsibility to listen to, learn from and amplify the First Nations voices all around us to ensure our activities support the continuing connection to land, waters, cultures, languages and traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
We recognise that reconciliation is the responsibility of all Australians, requiring the community to recognise and respect the First Peoples of this land, to acknowledge the past injustices, and the ongoing imbalances experienced by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples since colonisation, and to commit to working towards a more equal and respectful future.
We look forward to contributing to this important journey of healing and reconciliation by working with individuals, communities and organisations to contribute towards building stronger relationships with, and respect for, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
