24.01.2022 National NAIDOC Week 2020 celebrations will be held from the 8-15 November. The November dates follow the decision by the National NAIDOC Committee (NNC) to postpone NAIDOC Week from the original July dates due to the impacts and uncertainty from the escalating Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic across our communities and cities. The postponement was aimed at protecting our elders and those in our communities with chronic health issues from the disastrous impacts of COVID19.... As cooler weather approaches the need to protect our most susceptible remains. https://www.naidoc.org.au//new-dates-announced-naidoc-week
23.01.2022 Tyrown Waigana, a proud Noongar and Saibai Islander man based in Perth, has been named as the winner of the prestigious National NAIDOC Poster Competition. His ...winning entry - Shape of Land - was judged to have best illustrated the 2020 NAIDOC theme: Always Was Always Will Be. The 23-year-old artist explains his winning entry depicts the Rainbow Serpent coming out of the Dreamtime to create this country and how we are strongly connected to it. The Rainbow Serpent is represented by the snake and it forms the shape of Australia, which symbolises how it created our lands. The colour from the Rainbow Serpent is reflected on to the figure to display our connection to the Rainbow Serpent, thus our connection to country. The overlapping colours on the outside is the Dreamtime. The figure inside the shape of Australia is a representation of Indigenous Australians showing that this country - since the dawn of time - always was, and always will be Aboriginal land, Mr Waigana added.

01.01.2022 A vivid riverscape in Bermagui reminding us of the incredible land and sea Country upon which the Sapphire Coast NSW spans. In celebration of National NAIDOC We...ek, we would like to acknowledge the Tadjera, Munji, Djiringanj, Thaua, Bidawahal, Nulliker and Monaroo people of the Yuin-Monaro Nations who have occupied and cared for this region's land, sea and waterways for thousands of years. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people were Australia’s first explorers, first navigators, first engineers, first farmers, first botanists, first scientists, first diplomats, first astronomers and first artists. NAIDOC Week and this year's theme 'Always Was, Always Will Be' is about: "Seeing, hearing and learning the First Nations’ 65,000+ year history of this country - which is Australian history. We want all Australians to celebrate that we have the oldest continuing cultures on the planet and to recognise that our sovereignty was never ceded."
