All Australians are invited to join in the celebrations for NAIDOC Week 2009, from Sunday 5 July through to Sunday 12 July. The theme for NAIDOC 2009 is Honouring our Elders, Nurturing our Youth. The aim of the theme is to honour the achievement of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders and looks to the future.

Each year a host city is selected as a focal point for national NAIDOC activity. In 2009, the national focus will be on Brisbane and will include the National NAIDOC Awards Ceremony. The awards ceremony highlights the individual achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
