Survival Day Celebrations

Survival Day Celebrations, held annually on January 26th in Australia, commemorate the survival and resilience of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples following European colonization. The day acknowledges their enduring culture, history, and connection to the land. Events often include ceremonies, cultural performances, art exhibitions, and discussions that promote awareness, reconciliation, and recognition of Indigenous peoples' rights and contributions. It serves as an opportunity for Australians to reflect on the past, honor Indigenous heritage, and foster a more inclusive future.
