Celebrating NAIDOC Week
NAIDOC Week, which commences on Sunday, is a chance to celebrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and recognise the amazing contributions that Indigenous Australians have made to Australian society.
NAIDOC stands for the National Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee. Its origins can be traced to the emergence of Aboriginal groups in the 1920s which sought to increase awareness in the wider community of the status and treatment of Indigenous Australians.
