Student Action for Aborigines

Student Action for Aborigines (SAFA) was a student-led organization in Australia, active mainly during the 1960s and 1970s, advocating for Indigenous rights and social justice. It aimed to raise awareness about the injustices faced by Aboriginal Australians, including discrimination, land rights issues, and inequalities in health and education. SAFA organized protests, campaigns, and educational initiatives to promote equality and legal recognition of Indigenous Australians. Its efforts contributed to broader movements for land rights and the eventual recognition of Aboriginal Australians in national policies and the Australian Constitution.
