“先住民” refers to the indigenous peoples of a region, who have historical ties to the land before colonization or the arrival of settlers. These communities often have distinct languages, cultures, and traditions that reflect their unique relationship with their environment. In many countries, such as Canada and Australia, 先住民 have faced challenges due to colonization, including loss of land and cultural assimilation. Efforts are ongoing to recognize their rights, preserve their languages, and promote their cultural heritage, highlighting the importance of respecting and valuing indigenous knowledge and practices.
