Woven into the fabric of #NAIDOC celebrations are the achievements of leaders & trailblazers of the past. While Award ceremonies have been cancelled – including the National NAIDOC Awards - we commit to honouring & celebrating a new generation of inspirational achievers in 2021.

Importantly, #NAIDOC Week is an opportunity for Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians to come together to celebrate not only Indigenous achievement but the history, rich culture, and survival of the oldest continuing living culture on the planet.
