The WIFVC recognises that the land on which we work and provide our services always was and always will be Aboriginal land. We pay our respects to Elders past and present.

We proudly acknowledge the First Nations communities across Naarm / Melbourne’s west – the Wurundjeri and Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation. We acknowledge their rich diversity, cultures, histories and knowledges, and the deep contribution they make to the life of this region. We acknowledge the ongoing impacts of colonisation, as well as the strength and resilience of First Nations people, and express solidarity with the ongoing struggle for land rights, self-determination, sovereignty, and recognition of past injustices.

The image of the Torres Strait Islander flag is used here with the permission of the Torres Strait Island Regional Council, and we acknowledge its designer, the late Mr Bernard Namok.
