Australian Indigenous refers to the original inhabitants of Australia, including the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. They have diverse cultures, languages, and traditions that have developed over tens of thousands of years. Their connection to the land is deeply spiritual, and they have rich storytelling traditions that convey their history and beliefs. Indigenous Australians have a unique relationship with the environment, practicing sustainable land management techniques. They have a profound understanding of local ecosystems, which is reflected in their traditional practices, such as fire-stick farming. Today, efforts are being made to preserve and promote Indigenous cultures and rights within Australian society.
