Acknowledgement of Country. MELBZ is produced on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present, and emerging, and recognise their enduring connection to Country, culture, and community. Sovereignty was never ceded. Always was, always will be Aboriginal land.
