Heritage & Culture

As one of the few oldest living cultures on Earth, the culture of Aboriginal Australians is rich, complex and enduring. The wellbeing of Aboriginal people is connected to the land. DIA works with Aboriginal people to promote their culture and to protect and manage places and objects of significance to Aboriginal heritage.
