The national NAIDOC theme for 2022, Get Up! Stand Up! Show Up!, pays respect to a proud history of resistance and activism by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

It recognises First Peoples’ resilience and strength and celebrates those who have driven and led significant change in their communities over generations.

Getting Up, Standing Up, and Showing Up can take many forms.

Eldercare acknowledges that the relationship between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and non‑Indigenous Australians needs to be based on justice, respect, and equity.

We all must continue to Get Up! Stand Up! Show Up! For systemic change and keep rallying around our people, our Elders, and our communities.
