I, Emma Christina Lucia Rochester acknowledge the many Traditional Custodians of Country throughout The Simpson Desert, Australia and honour their Elders past and present.

I respect their deep connection to their lands, waterways and surrounding clan groups since time immemorial.

I acknowledge that I was graciously given the honour of walking on Native Title Land as part of leadership development for future generations.
