Welcome
to the website for the
Slovenian Australian Institute.
This site was launched in April 2002
in Sydney Australia and very much
reflects the aims and objectives
of the Institute. It is a visual record
for all its activities, projects
and associations and is also
a bilingual site.
Visit 'About Us' to find out more
about why the Institute exists, who
we are and by visiting 'Upcoming Events and 'Events Archive',
see what
the Institute has already achieved
in both Australia and Slovenia.
Feedback on this site is welcome.

info@sloaus-inst.com
or if there are interesting projects,
exhibitions, points of interest that
may be included or linked to
this site.

Interesting Websites to visit
Visit the Slovenian Cultural Profile website launched in Dec 04. This site brings together relevant information about the people and organisations working in the cultural sector in Slovenia.
The Cultural Profile is a searchable website database designed to encourage international cultural exchange and collaboration between the Slovenian cultural sector, the U.K. and the rest of the world.
This is the most comprehensive online directory of Slovenia's cultural sector ever produced - there are detailed entries ranging from national concert halls to independent artist groups, from pupperty festivals to intermedia research centres.
Visit 'Sinfo', the new monthly on-line magazine bringing news from Slovenia on politics, environment, culture, business and sports. First issued on 24 November 2004. English edition.

HASA
The Historical Archives of Slovenian Australians (HASA) based in Sydney, was
established in conjunction with the Scientific Research Centre of the
Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts, which is located in Ljubljana, the
capital city of Slovenia.
The purpose of the archive is to collect, preserve
and exhibit artefacts, books, photographs, documents, biographies as well as
any other items of historical interest pertaining to persons of Slovenian
origin, living in Australia.
Furthermore, the aim is to promote a greater
understanding of Slovenian culture and history within the Australian
community.
As part of our current research project into Slovenian migration to
Australia, we are endeavouring to locate as many persons as possible who are
either born in Slovenia or have a Slovenian heritage on either the paternal
or maternal side.
The information gathered will provide a valuable insight
into the history of Slovenian settlement in Australia as well as detail the
overall contribution Slovenians have made to Australian society.
If you can help in any way or indeed know someone who can, please contact
the archives.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
