The people of Gippsland recognise the importance of our ecosystems, natural resource base, unique natural features and landscapes found within the region.
Our inspired, knowledgeable, capable and resilient communities will ensure these continue to underpin the environmental, social cultural and economic wealth of the region.
We acknowledge and pay our respects to the Traditional Owners of the region, the Gunaikurnai, the Bunurong, the Boonwurrung and the Wurundjeri Peoples, their rich culture and spiritual connection to Country. We also acknowledge the contribution and interest of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples and organisations in natural resource management and pay respects to Elders, past, present and emerging.
