Currency Press acknowledges the Gadigal people of the Eora nation, the traditional custodians of the land on which we work. We pay our respects to their elders past and present and acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders as this country’s first storytellers. Sovereignty has never been ceded. Always was, always will be Aboriginal Land.
