About Us
We acknowledge and pay our respects to the Traditional Custodians of Cape York Peninsula, past and present. We are particularly grateful to those groups and individuals who have welcomed us onto their homelands and into their communities, and who have generously shared knowledge, time and advice on a range of issues.
We also acknowledge and thank the following organisations for their support for our research activities.
