You can find more about ways to support NAIDOC Day TOOL KIT

“This toolkit provides guidance to help inspire your team, workplace, school, club or community group to celebrate National NAIDOC Week. You can use this toolkit any time of the year, not just during National NAIDOC Week in July every year. In fact, the more you use this toolkit, the more opportunities you will create to form genuine partnerships, celebrate Blak excellence and amplify Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voices.”

NAIDOC Day for those who don’t know about it,

“NAIDOC Week is an Australian observance lasting from the first Sunday in July until the following Sunday. The acronym NAIDOC stands for National Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee, which was originally National Aborigines Day Observance Committee.”

Each year a theme is picked as a focal point, and there are also awards for First Nations Australians, in areas such as community, education, culture and the arts.
