Acknowledgment

of Country


Western Sydney is home to the largest Indigenous community in Australia, the vast majority of whom are internally dispaced from their ancestral lands located across New South Wales and Australia.

We acknowledge and honour Aboriginal People who have cared for country for at least 60,000 years. 

Business Western Sydney thanks these Traditional Owners and we pay our respects to their Ancestors and Elders - past, present and emerging.

We also acknowledge the vital role played by our Local Aboriginal Land Councils as modern custodians for First Nations people.

Further, we proudly support calls for an Indigenous Voice to Parliament, as articulated in the Uluru Statement from the Heart.
