Conference Theme

Our Culture. Keep it Strong. We Belong.

Rationale: This theme reinforces the importance of keeping Culture strong and celebrating that strength. It also references the importance of Cultural identity and belonging in the lives of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures play a key role in achieving positive early learning and development outcomes for our children. By cultivating layers of cultural safety, support and community around our children, we can help them grow into strong Elders for generations to come.
