About Us » Acknowledgement of Country

We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We pay our respect to them and their cultures and to Elders past, present and emerging.

Furthermore, as First Nations Institute Australia is on Gubbi Gubbi Country we particularly acknowledge, pay our respect too, and thank the Elders of the Gubbi Gubbi Nation past, present and emerging.

Meaning of our Logo 

Our logo represents the hands of the traditional healers of Australia. As traditional healers we use our hands to project universal energy through it for the purpose of healing.

Our logo was designed, and gifted to the Institute, by Dr. Elvianna's eldest daughter Ms. Keshia.
