Acknowledgement of Country
We are passionate in our efforts to ‘close the gap’ between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders and non-Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. Our focus is working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders and key organisations to build relationships and assist in creating opportunities through education and employment. For over 10 years, we have offered a program for Indigenous law students which provides them with long-term work experience, mentoring and study support (financial and mentoring) through CareerTrackers. These programs provide excellent opportunities for Indigenous students to achieve their legal goals both within and beyond Gadens. We are extremely proud of our Acknowledgement of Country video below, which was prepared by our Indigenous Interns.
