The theme of NAIDOC Week 2025 is The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacy. This year, we celebrate not only the achievements of the past but the bright future ahead, empowered by the strength of our young leaders, the vision of our communities, and the legacy of our ancestors.
NAIDOC Week is celebrated by people from all walks of life, Indigenous and non‑Indigenous. As we enter 2025, NAIDOC Week marks a powerful milestone: 50 years of honouring and elevating Indigenous voices, culture, and resilience. Take the opportunity to support and amplify the voices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
