Cultural safety

First Nations

An environment where First Nations peoples feel respected, understood, and free from racism or harm, and where their cultural identities, knowledge systems, and ways of being are upheld. Cultural safety goes beyond awareness - it requires ongoing reflection, accountability, and power-sharing from individuals and organisations to ensure that systems and practices do not cause harm.
