RST Apology to Tasmanian Aboriginal people 2021.
The 2015 biennial conference of the Australian and New Zealand Associations of Alexander von Humboldt Fellows offers an important opportunity for current and former Alexander von Humboldt Fellows, across both the Humanities and Sciences, to meet, to present and exchange ideas, and to learn more about the current and future activities of the Foundation. The German Embassy is pleased to be able to support this Humboldt conference, and to encourage continued and productive German-Australian and German-New Zealand research collaborations.

The Royal Society of Tasmania acknowledges, with deep respect, the traditional owners of this land, and the ongoing custodianship of the Aboriginal people of Tasmania. The Society pays respect to Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge that Tasmanian Aboriginal Peoples have survived severe and unjust impacts resulting from invasion and dispossession of their Country. As an institution dedicated to the advancement of knowledge, the Royal Society of Tasmania recognises Aboriginal cultural knowledge and practices and seeks to respect and honour these traditions and the deep understanding they represent.
On 15 February 2021, the Royal Society of Tasmania offered a formal Apology to the Tasmanian Aboriginal people.
