08.01.2022 NAIDOC Week has been postponed. Normally celebrated in July due to this year it will be celebrated in November. There still will be a number of online events during 5-12 July, 2020 to mark the original week. NAIDOC stands for 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 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders.
