Country Needs People - Supporter Voices

Everybody deserves to have the opportunity to care for their land in a meaningful way. In order to stop disadvantage in the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities we need jobs that create a sense of well being and order and give all those living in communities a sense of purpose and pride in their communities. Funding these jobs and proper care programs ensures all Australian people will benefit from the land being properly cared for and ultimately save more money than funding these projects will cost.

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.
