Happy NAIDOC week

Keep the Fire Burning, Blak Loud and Proud!

Happy NAIDOC week! This year's theme Keep the Fire Burning, Blak Loud and Proud! encapsulates the unapologetic celebration of Indigenous identity, empowering us to stand tall in our heritage and assert our place in the modern world (NAIDOC website).

At Poche, this reflects our work to establish ‘a rightful place’ in the academy for Indigenous intellect and scholarship at the University of Melbourne. In doing this, we acknowledge Indigenous peoples have a long intellectual tradition informed by a strong knowledge economy. Providing culturally informed academic support is our contribution to this.

On Tuesday we were visited by talented young artis, you can see their work on LinkedIn.

We are looking forward to the Narrm march on Friday!
