NAIDOC Week Activities

“We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the Lands that we are privileged to walk upon and learn on each day. We pay our respects to Elders past and present, who are our knowledge holders, story keepers and teachers. I thank them for looking after the land, sky and waterways, so you and I can enjoy them, and so too can the generations to come.”

 

The NAIDOC Week theme for 2022 – Get Up! Stand Up! Show Up! – encourages all of us to champion and drive institutional, structural, and collaborative change while also acknowledging and celebrating those who for generations have driven positive change for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities.

We would like to acknowledge the work of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander brothers and sisters who continue to Get Up! Stand Up! and Show Up! for communities. We recognise the special contributions of First Nations peoples and cultures, that enrich and shape the cultural identity of this nation.
