The Multicultural Youth Awards up would like to acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the Aboriginal land, on which we all live, work, and play.​ We pay our deepest respect to Elders past and present, and any First Nations members who are part of the Multicultural Youth Group Industry. We acknowledge that sovereignty has never been ceded. This land always was and always will be Aboriginal land.​
