Hazara Australians or Australian Hazaras (Dari: هزارههای استرالیا) are Australians who have Hazara ancestry.[2] The Hazaras are an ethnic group native to, and primarily residing in, the mountainous region of Hazarajat in central Afghanistan. Many Hazara Australians have also migrated from Pakistan.[3] The Hazara Council of Australia is an organization formed by the Hazara community of Australia.[4] Hazaras constitute one of the largest ethnic groups of asylum seekers in Australia[5]
According to the 2016 Australian census, 21.9% of Afghan-born Australians recorded their ancestry as Hazara and 33.9% listed Hazaragi as their main language, making Hazaras the second largest group in both categories.[6]
