An Indigenous Land (territorial acknowledgement) is a statement that recognizes the Indigenous peoples who have been dispossessed from the homelands upon which an institution was built, and currently occupies and operates in.

Recognizing the land in this way is an expression of gratitude and appreciation to those Indigenous Peoples whose territory one resides on.

It is a way of honoring the enduring relationship that exists between Indigenous Peoples and their traditional territories.
