Believe TASMANIAN

The Tasmanian story began over 60,000 years ago. We acknowledge the ancient history of the Tasmanian Aboriginal people as the First People of lutruwita/Tasmania. For over 2,000 generations, Tasmanian Aboriginal people’s culture and language have been and continue to be based on a deep and continuous connection to family, community, and the land, sea, and waterways.
