The Genealogical Society of Victoria acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the lands on which we gather, and we pay our respects to their Elders past and present. We recognise the First Peoples of this country as the oldest continuous storytellers, whose knowledge and connection to Country continue to guide us.
The Genealogical Society of Victoria acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the lands on which we live, work, and gather. We pay our respects to their Elders past and present, and to all First Nations peoples whose cultures, languages, and histories continue to shape this place.
As a society dedicated to preserving and sharing stories, we recognise that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are the oldest continuous storytellers in the world. Their knowledge, traditions, family histories, and connection to Country extend back countless generations.
May we walk together with respect, listening, and with a shared commitment to truth telling as we continue our work of exploring and preserving the stories that connect us.
