We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples as the First Nations and the traditional custodians of the lands and waters now known as Australia, and Māori as tangata whenua in Aotearoa, also known as New Zealand. We recognise and value the traditional knowledge held by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples and Māori.
We honour and pay respect to the Elders past and present, who weave their wisdom into all realms of life – spiritual, cultural, social, emotional, and physical.
The RANZCP artwork was created by Jordan Lovegrove, of the Ngarrindjeri people of the lower Murray River. The two meeting places, concentric circles, are shown as neurons communicating with each other, representing healthy brain functionality. The yellow stars represent wellbeing and positive thoughts transmitting throughout the mind. This artwork is reproduced with the artist’s permission.
We recognise those with lived and living experience of a mental health condition, including community members, College members and staff. We affirm their ongoing contribution to the improvement of mental healthcare for all people.
Together we share our ongoing contribution to the improvement of mental healthcare for all people.
