Melbourne Water respectfully acknowledges the Bunurong, Gunaikurnai, Taungurung, Wadawurrung and Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung peoples as the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the land and water on which we rely and operate. We pay our deepest respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.  

One of our organisational goals is “We will walk Country together”. The goal supports Traditional Owner self-determination and our commitment to reconciliation. 

The artwork titled “We Will Walk Country Together” captures the essence of the partnership between Melbourne Water and the Traditional Owners who have been Caring for their Country for thousands of years and is a testament to our commitment to deliver against our obligations in regard to Traditional Owners.  

Through this artwork and our commitment to caring for Melbourne and planning for the future, we want to demonstrate our strong partnership and dedication to working with Traditional Owners to ensure the sustainability of land and waterways for generations to come.
