©2022 Sense of Safety Project.
Designed by Afterhours Creative Studio.

The Sense of Safety Project acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land now called Australia and those First Nations peoples in the USA, Norway, and Canada, where our researchers are located. We pay our respect to their Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge the lands now called Australia were never ceded and recognise their people’s continuation of culture and connection to land, sky and sea. We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as Australia’s First Peoples and honour the rich diversity of the world’s oldest living culture and knowledge systems that protect a whole understanding of health as linked to kin, country and spirit.

We also acknowledge the support from the University of Queensland for the doctoral research cited in this work.
