Celebrating NAIDOC Week
NAIDOC Week celebrations are held across Australia each July to celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. NAIDOC is celebrated not only in Indigenous communities, but by Australians from all walks of life. The week is a great opportunity to participate in a range of activities and to support your local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community.
The 2019 NAIDOC Week theme is VOICE. TREATY. TRUTH. Let’s work together for a shared future.
There will be a number of events held across various Transport offices to celebrate NAIDOC week. Please speak with your manager to find out the details of your local office event.
For those based in the Sydney metropolitan area, there will be a Transport event held as per the below details.
