The Wesfarmers Centre of Vaccines & Infectious Diseases 2023 Retreat will take place on Whadjuk country. We acknowledge the Whadjuk Nyoongar people as the Traditional Owners of the Perth region and recognise their continuing connection to the land, waters, and community. We pay our respect to Whadjuk Elders past, present, and emerging, and their cultures. We acknowledge their generosity and wisdom in our work at The Kids Research Institute Australia. We are committed to a positive future for the Aboriginal community.
