The Voice for History in South Australia
We're the peak body in South Australia, providing a representative voice on historical issues, celebrating and raising the profile of history in the state.
Acknowledgement of Country
We would like to acknowledge that the land on which the History Council of South Australia operates is the traditional land of the Kaurna people. We respect their spiritual relationships with the country.
Studying our past and telling our stories is critical to our sense of belonging, to our communities and to our shared future.
