About National NAIDOC Week 2023 at UQ
National NAIDOC Week celebrations are held across Australia in the first week of July each year, to celebrate and recognise the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
This year's theme is "For Our Elders". Across every generation, our Elders have played, and continue to play, an important role and hold a prominent place in our communities and families. It is their influence and through their learnings that we must ensure that when it comes to future decision making for our people, there is nothing about us - without us.
NAIDOC Celebration at UQ is an opportunity for the UQ Community to learn about First Nations cultures and histories and participate in celebrations of the oldest, continuous living cultures on earth.
