[2] Many of the so-called early "Afghan cameleers" in Australia were Baloch men who came from the Balochistan region (parts of present-day Balochistan province in Pakistan, southern Afghanistan and eastern Iran).

[5][6] Small groups of cameleers were shipped in and out of Australia at three-year intervals, to service the Australian inland pastoral industry by carting goods and transporting wool bales by camel trains.

[10] Today, there is a notable number of Baloch individuals in Australia[11] pursuing education and employment opportunities.

The community continues to celebrate its heritage while integrating into Australian society.

[12] Some members of the Baloch diaspora in Australia are actively involved in raising awareness about issues affecting Balochistan, including human rights abuses and political struggles.
