The Royal Commission into Domestic, Family and Sexual Violence acknowledges the traditional countries throughout South Australia on which the Commission will conduct this inquiry.

The Commission acknowledges all Aboriginal people across South Australia who are the Traditional Custodians of the land and waters of the oldest continuous living culture on Earth. We pay our respects to Elders, past, present and emerging.

The Commission acknowledges and honours the work of Aboriginal people to end domestic, family and sexual violence. The Commission will work in genuine, formal partnership with Aboriginal people and will listen to the advice and expertise of Aboriginal people, their communities and their organisations.
