A Welcome to Country is a ritual or formal ceremony performed as a land acknowledgement at many events held in Australia. It is intended to highlight the cultural significance of the surrounding area to the descendants of a particular Aboriginal clan or language group who were recognised as the original human inhabitants of the area. For the Welcome to be recognised as official, it must be performed by a recognised elder of the group. Welcomes to Country are sometimes accompanied by traditional smoking ceremonies, music or dance. Where an elder is not available to perform the Welcome, or there is not a recognised traditional owner, an Acknowledgement of Country may be offered instead.

  • Una Bienvenida al País es un ritual o ceremonia formal protagonizada como un reconocimiento a la tierra llevado adelante en varios eventos organizados en Australia. Está creado con la finalidad de destacar la significancia cultural de un territorio para un Clan de Aborígenes en particular, los cuales son reconocidos como los dueños tradicionales de dicho territorio. La Bienvenida debe ser siempre protagonizada por un Anciano de dicho Clan. Las mismas suelen ser acompañadas en diferentes ocasiones por ceremonias de fumadores tradicionales, música o danza. Cuando un Anciano no esta disponible para protagonizar la Bienvenida o no hay un dueño tradicional reconocido, un Reconocimiento del País podría ser ofrecido en su lugar. (es)
