Country Needs People - Supporter Voices

because if we don't thousands of years of our history will be lost forever, isn't it bad enough that most of our languages have gone, now the mining companies want to destroy our art, our history in stories that anyone can read and understand because it is pictures draw on rock, in caves, under rock overlays. these stories are our history, they are not something to be destroyed by mining companies or tourist that destroy them. We need our rangers, we need them now and we ned lots more of them. Dennis Murray ( Yorta Yorta man)

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.
