2025 Acknowledge This! How to give an authentic Acknowledgement of Country

Acknowledging Country: A Journey to Authenticity

In today’s world, most organisations, businesses, and schools are embracing Acknowledgements of Country. However, the reasons behind this practice often go unrecognised. Most of the time, Acknowledgements are read from a script, reduced to a mere formality to tick a box. This approach undermines the significance of what Acknowledgement of Country truly represents.

Join Rhys and Emma as they guide you in delivering a heartfelt Acknowledgement of Country, free from fear.

Together, we’ll explore the essential steps to crafting a genuine and meaningful Acknowledgement that reflects the place, the people, and your own connection to Country. You’ll learn about the concept that lies behind the words, enabling your own personal stories and connection to shine through. 
By the end of this experience, you will:

- Gain a deeper understanding of what an Acknowledgement of Country is
- Discover the purpose of an Acknowledgement of Country
- Develop your own personalised Acknowledgement, adaptable for any gathering where you wish to honour our shared history
