NAIDOC Week 2022 (July 3-10) celebrations began with an annual flag raising ceremony attended by more than 300 people at Sunshine Coast Council’s Nambour administration building.
This year’s NAIDOC Week theme is Get Up! Stand Up! Show Up! which calls on our community to rally for systemic change and continue to support and secure institutional, structural, collaborative, and cooperative reforms.
Sunshine Coast Council Mayor Mark Jamieson said the annual flag raising ceremony was always a special and thought-provoking way to start NAIDOC Week events held across the region.
“Council is committed to continuing to develop and strengthen relationships with First Nations people through engaging staff and stakeholders in reconciliation and piloting innovative strategies to empower First Nations people,” he said
“Together we can continue to nurture a shared future that embraces culture, heritage and diversity.”
