With NAIDOC Week drawing to a close and the pandemic ongoing, it is incumbent upon Australian legal professionals to recognise the existing and emerging issues facing Indigenous practitioners, particularly women, and find meaningful ways to achieve progress.
The theme for this year’s NAIDOC Week is ‘Always Was, Always Will Be’, giving Australians across the spectrum the opportunity to reflect on the lives and cultures that make up our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population.
