The NAIDOC website says the theme for this year is to “Get Up! Stand Up! Show Up!” for systemic change.
“We all must continue to Get Up! Stand Up! Show Up! for systemic change and keep rallying around our mob, our Elders, our communities.
“Whether it’s seeking proper environmental, cultural and heritage protections, Constitutional change, a comprehensive process of truth-telling, working towards treaties, or calling out racism—we must do it together.”
NAIDOC week will also focus on supporting and securing reforms, celebrating Indigenous community leaders, recognising Indigenous rights and amplifying Indigenous voices.
