Ngarrindjeri people

The Ngarrindjeri people are an Indigenous Australian group from the southeastern part of South Australia, particularly around the Murray River, Lakes Alexandrina and Albert, and the Coorong region. They have a rich cultural heritage and connection to the land, water, and their ancestral stories. Traditionally, the Ngarrindjeri engaged in fishing, hunting, and gathering, and they possess a deep understanding of their environment. Today, they continue to uphold their cultural practices, advocate for land rights, and work towards preserving their language and traditions while addressing contemporary social and economic issues. Their resilience and cultural identity remain strong.
