Losing this court case feels like we’ve lost our chance for a safe future

The Duty of Care Campaign acknowledges the Ngunnawal people as the traditional custodians of the lands on which we campaign. We extend that acknowledgment to all Indigenous people across so-called Australia, and in doing so we recognise that it is Aboriginal knowledge and culture that has sustained the lands for many millennia, and it is Aboriginal knowledge and culture that must carry us forward. Sovereignty was never ceded.
