Introduction
Impacting climate change and inequality is a core focus for the Future Group (FG). Our staff uphold these values, and together we acknowledge how we benefit from living and working on stolen land. We understand the importance of Paying the Rent, and our obligation to be part of this.
This policy outlines our proactive approach to make a company-wide commitment to contribute to the Pay the Rent movement. In acknowledging that the sovereignty of First Nations people was never ceded, we also acknowledge that we conduct business and take shelter on land which was removed from First Nations people. This has created a disproportionate distribution of wealth and marginalised the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander owners. Paying the Rent is a step towards justice, truth and equality for First Nations people.
In Paying the Rent we seek suitable partnerships which address:
Stolen Land: Future Super Group operate across a broad range of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander lands
Lack of Treaty/Change: no present commitment exists (from government) for restitution or systemic change
Action: We do not want to sit and wait
This policy is aligned to our Charitable Giving Principles.
