We pay our respects to their elders, past and present; and acknowledge their long history and ongoing care practises for this land.

Sovereignty was never ceded. Always was, always will be Aboriginal land.

The MSA’s Disabilities and Carers department is a representative community for students with a disability, and students who provide care for a person with a disability or elderly person. Led by Disabled Students and Carers, they are acutely aware of the issues the community faces, and advocate for greater accessibility & more support services for students; as well as promoting awareness and education about hidden disabilities, allyship, & national disability politics.
