If your view is outputting your svg, it escapes it if you serve it as a string. But svg equals xml which means that you could serve your svg using django templating.

If you mean that django escapes the HTML on its way out in the response, then it's simple - wrap any HTML strings in mark_safe (from from django.utils.safestring import mark_safe)

Like this:

def myview(request):
    html_data = "<h1>Hello world!</h1>"
    return render(request, "template.html", {"html": mark_safe(html_data)})
