About Mizoram and Chin-Myanmar Communities:

The Mizo of Northeast India and the Chin of Myanmar share a common heritage, language, culture, and traditions. While history united them, borders now divide them. Today, many of these communities live and work in Australia and are valued members of the multicultural fabric, contributing significantly through their resilience and rich cultural heritage.
