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; the oldest, continuous living cultures on earth.
This year’s theme, chosen by the National NAIDOC Committee, is The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacy.
As we enter 2025, NAIDOC Week marks a powerful milestone: 50 years of honouring and elevating Indigenous voices, culture, and resilience. The 2025 theme, "The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacy," celebrates 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.
Southern Cross University invites all staff, students, and community to join us in celebrating NAIDOC at Gold Coast, Lismore and Coffs Harbour campus locations. This community day includes events across the three campuses with cultural performances, musicians and workshops/activities.
The NAIDOC Week Art Exhibition in the Library will also run from Monday, 7 July - Friday, 25 July at all 3 main campus locations.
