To celebrate Global Ethics Day and the theme of ‘ethics empowered’ Dr Rachael O’Brien, Olivia Skala, and Danica Dolton share some of their reflections in their daily work with the SPA ethics team.

Speech Pathology Australia acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of lands, seas and waters throughout Australia, and pay respect to Elders past, present and future.

We recognise that the health and social and emotional wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are grounded in continued connection to culture, country, language and community and acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded.
