Survival Day Marches

Survival Day Marches are annual events held on January 26th in Australia to commemorate and honor the survival and resilience of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. The marches serve as a platform to raise awareness about Indigenous rights, history, and ongoing issues, such as social justice and reconciliation. Participants, often dressed in traditional attire or holding banners, walk through the streets, expressing solidarity and celebrating Indigenous culture. These marches have grown into significant expressions of pride and advocacy, promoting understanding and acknowledgment of the Indigenous peoples’ enduring connection to the land and their journey toward justice.
