NAIDOC WEEK EVENTS, 6 - 13 July
NAIDOC Week 2025 marks a powerful milestone- 50 years of celebrating First Nations culture, strength, and sovereignty.
This year’s theme, ‘The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacy’, invites us to honour the trailblazers of the past while celebrating the energy and leadership of the young people shaping the future.
The theme recognises the strength of communities, the enduring wisdom of ancestors, and the importance of empowering the next generation to carry the flame forward with pride, purpose, and self-determination.
