NAIDOC Week (3-10 July) is held in July every year as a way of promoting greater understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and culture and to celebrate the survival of Indigenous culture and the Indigenous contribution to modern Australia.
Australian Ambassador to Indonesia Penny Williams said, “NAIDOC Week is an opportunity for all Australians to celebrate the history, culture, and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples”.
“This year, the Australia Embassy will mark NAIDOC Week with a visit by prominent Indigenous Australian, David Williams. Mr Williams will share his unique perspectives on how his culture influences his creative work in strategic communications” said Ambassador Williams.
While in Indonesia, David Williams will meet with Indonesian students, creative arts communities, and Indonesian Alumni of Australian universities to share his expertise bringing his cultural perspectives to the creative process through a series of creative talks and didgeridoo performances in Jakarta, Bandung and Bali.
We invite you to follow our social media for a range of NAIDOC stories and perspectives this week and throughout the year.
