Country Needs People - Supporter Voices

When you read the literature on Indigenous Protected Areas and compare these areas to non-protected areas, you fully understand and appreciate the great work being done by Indigenous Rangers on Country, to ensure Australia has healthy ecosystems for the future. The comparative maps tell the story. It is blatantly obvious. Read 'People on Country: Vital Landscapes, Indigenous Futures' edited by Jon Altman and Sean Kerins. Healthy Country means healthy Australians.

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.
