Session organisers, presenters and delegates are reminded of the Association\u2019s Code of Ethics regarding protocols for the presentation of any data and\/or interpretations of data that relate to Indigenous culture. These protocols require all session organisers and presenters to ensure that full prior and informed consent to collect, record, and present data and interpretations relating to Indigenous cultural materials is obtained from Indigenous collaborators and\/or owners of data before any paper is accepted into a session and subsequently presented at the conference, as either a spoken paper, workshop, panel or poster. We take this opportunity to reiterate that breaches of the Association\u2019s Code of Ethics can result in the expulsion of members under section 32 of the Constitution.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>
