It is essential to recognise and respect the First Nations people's unique cultural heritage, as it is an integral part of the Australian identity. We acknowledge that the First Nations people have a deep understanding of their land and its resources, including flora, fauna, and natural resources.

Therefore, any use of Aunty Kerry and or the Yuggera Community's intellectual and cultural knowledge must be done in consultation with the relevant First Nations people and with respect to their cultural protocols and practices.

We hope this disclaimer helps to foster a more inclusive and respectful approach towards First Nations people's intellectual and cultural knowledge in Australia.
