It’s National NAIDOC Week!
Let’s celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. To see how you can celebrate NAIDOC Week visit: https://www.naidoc.org.au/get-involved/2020-theme
NAIDOC Week 2020 acknowledges and celebrates that our nation’s story didn’t begin with documented European contact whether in 1770 or 1606 – with the arrival of the Dutch on the western coast of the Cape York Peninsula.
The very first footprints on this continent were those belonging to First Nations peoples.
Our coastal Nations watched and interacted with at least 36 contacts made by Europeans prior to 1770. Many of them resulting in the charting of the northern, western and southern coastlines – of our lands and our waters.
For us, this nation’s story began at the dawn of time.
NAIDOC 2020 invites all Australians to embrace the true history of this country – a history which dates back thousands of generations.
Always Was, Always Will Be.
