We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Owners of the land. We pay our respects to Elders past and present. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have been sharing stories about the world’s creation and learning through lived experience for thousands of years. At batyr, we take inspiration from this sacred practice and share our own stories in hopes of opening up conversations about mental health.
We acknowledge the individual and collective insight and expertise of those with a lived and living experience of mental ill-health. Lived experience stories matter and without them, we would not be able to have the impact we do.
