NAIDOC Week runs from Sunday 8 November to Sunday 15 November. This year’s theme is ‘Always Was, Always Will Be.’
Always Was, Always Will Be. recognises that First Nations people have occupied and cared for this continent for over 65,000 years.
NAIDOC 2020 invites all Australians to embrace the true history of this country – a history which dates back thousands of generations.
It’s 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.
