The activities of DIHPEA have been funded by GEMPASS and UCAT, with support from MDANZ and the Damion Drapac Centre.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the unceded lands on which we live, learn and work across Australia, and pay our respects to Elders past and present. We honour the enduring traditions of caring for Country, communities, individuals and one another that have sustained wellbeing across generations.

We also acknowledge the tangata whenua of Aotearoa New Zealand, recognising Māori relationships with whenua, whānau and community, and honour Te Tiriti o Waitangi. We are committed to learning from Indigenous knowledges and supporting more equitable and inclusive futures.
