Acknowledgement of Country
Artwork – “Those Who Came Before Us” – In 2020 and 2021, over 120 staff and students, Indigenous and non-Indigenous, contributed to this painting. This activity was co-facilitated by artist Allan McKenzie, a Wiradjuri-Gamilaroi man from Griffith, NSW. “Those Who Came Before Us” is owned by none, yet owned by all, and is a great example of reconciliation in practice.

With respect for Aboriginal cultural protocol and out of recognition that its campuses occupy their traditional lands, Western Sydney University acknowledges the Darug, Dharawal, Gadigal, Gundungurra and Wiradjuri peoples and thanks them for their support of its work on their lands (Greater Western Sydney and beyond). We acknowledge that the teaching, learning, and research undertaken across our campuses continues the teaching, learning and research that has occurred on these lands for tens of thousands of years.
