Traditional Owner Acknowledgment Plaques
ANTaR Victoria sells acknowledgment plaques (pictured below) for
use on office doors, on school, university, residential and farm
buildings and fences, on municipal properties, business premises
etc.
We sell acknowledgement plaques with the agreement of two groups
of Traditional Owners - the Woiwurrung / Wurundjeri peoples of the
greater Melbourne region (except for the immediate bay side areas),
and the Dja Dja Wrung / Jaara peoples of central Victoria, on whose
traditional lands are found the cities of Kyneton, Bendigo, Pyramid
Hill, Boort, Charlton, Donald, St Arnaud, Avoca, Creswick, Daylesford,
Castlemaine and Maryborough, and the many smaller settlements within
that general region.
These plaques are made of metal and are available in small &
large sizes (14cm x 22cm and 30cm x 45cm)
We now also trialling a plaque for use in other areas of Victoria
where agreement on boundaries has not been reached by Traditional
Owner groups The wording for the plaque, pictured below, has the
endorsement of the Victorian Corporation for Aboriginal Languages.
We are also looking to make available all-weather stickers which
can be placed over the word 'Aboriginal' to indicate a particular
Tradtional Owner group where that group has agreed to this. These
plaques are being introduced an an iterim measure and should not
be seen to replace acknowledgement that names specific Tradional
Owner groups. We will continue to develop specific plaques for particular
Tradional Owner groups wherever possible.
This plaque is only available in small size (14cm x 22cm).
The plaques are available through our web shop
or by phone / mail order.
If any one would like to develop a plaque along these lines, in
consultation with the local Traditional Owners , please contact
ANTaR Victoria.
