Survival Day 2021

We who come from many places acknowledge the welcome that continues to be offered to us by the traditional custodians of this land.

We recognise that this land always has been Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander land and always will be.
 
Every day, we work to welcome new Australians from across the world. As we do this, we acknowledge the history and current realities of First Nations people. We understand our individual and collective responsibility towards the achievement of justice, equality and reconciliation.
 
On this Survival Day, we encourage all Australians to increase our understanding of Indigenous Australian perspectives of 26 January.
Our partners at SBS feature a selection of dedicated programming, special events and news highlights on what Australia Day, the country's national day means for many.  Go to http://bit.ly/3iHUno8 to learn more.
