A community of unity, heritage & purpose
Dealing with the challenges of today requires problem-solvers who bring different perspectives and are willing to take risks.
Established 1983.
The Tamil Society of the Northern Territory emerged from a pursuit to inspire and support the community, and a desire for actions to speak louder than words. Driven by progressive ideas, bold actions and a strong foundation of support, we work to make a meaningful difference for Tamil families in Darwin and the wider NT.
We bring fresh ideas and passion to the range of activities we're involved in. Through everything we do, we aim to display the conviction behind our beliefs.
