About
The Filipino Australia Project is a cultural and historical initiative aimed at gathering, preserving, and sharing the stories of Filipinos in Australia. Its primary focus is on documenting the history of Filipino migration, contributions, and community development across Australia, providing insights into the Filipino-Australian experience. Additionally, the project promotes Filipino culture, heritage, and traditions within the broader Australian society through exhibitions, cultural programs, and educational resources. By fostering awareness and understanding, the project strengthens cultural ties and celebrates the Filipino community’s rich history and diverse contributions to Australia.
