National Survivors’ Day aims to Recognise & commemorate the courage and journeys of Survivors of Sexual Assault and Institutional Abuse, their Supporters, and whistle-blowers across Australia.

IGFF established a National Advisory Committee (NAC) to devise the key components and scope of the Day, including the date, symbolisms, language, and design. The NAC brought together Survivors, family members, whistle-blowers, people living with disabilities and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities from across Australia.
