NAIDOC Week - July 2023

Monash celebrated the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples from 2-9 July as part of NAIDOC Week.

NAIDOC Week is celebrated not only in Indigenous communities, but by Australians from all walks of life and is great opportunity to participate in a range of activities to support local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.

This year's theme was 'For our Elders'. Across every generation, Elders have played, and continue to play, an important role and hold a prominent place in Indigenous communities and families. 

The City of Monash is situated on the traditional lands of Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Bunurong people. 

The diversity of First People's heritage and contemporary culture throughout Monash is highly respected and valued.
