The Federation of Australian Historical Societies acknowledges that the nation of Australia boasts the longest living culture and heritage of any part of the world. We pay tribute to our First Peoples, their heritage and their contribution to our contemporary society. We will endeavour to have First Peoples engaged in our historical work and participating as members. We acknowledge the First Peoples as the original custodians of the land on which our societies work and operate.
