Country Needs People - Supporter Voices

Ngara from an Anglo in Queensland! All land that humans coexist on needs managing. Whether you're a gardener, a farmer or an Indigenous person on Country, we know connection and understanding is needed to manage our land well. Those connections and knowledge takes time, and Indigenous Aussies have had 50,000 years or more to know well what is required. I value the Rangers highly because I've worked with Indigenous people and I've been on Country, and they're the best people for the job. This is Aboriginal country, but it needs help, and they're the people to do it.

Country Needs People is a national not-for-profit organisation born from the support of hundreds of Traditional Owners around the country.

We pay our respects to all the First Nations people around Australia and their unbroken commitment to keep Country strong on land and sea. We acknowledge Indigenous partners, Traditional Owners, Elders past, present and emerging and extend our appreciation of their support and guidance of our daily work.

ALWAYS WAS, ALWAYS WILL BE, ABORIGINAL LAND.
