Coming up on this episode of NITV Radio we continue to celebrate NAIDOC Week 2025 and the theme, The Next Generation: Strength, Vision and Legacy.

I travelled to Boorloo, Perth, over the weekend to attend the National NAIDOC Awards where I was honoured to speak with some of the award winners such as the iconic Christine Anu who won Creative Talent, as well as the legendary Michael Long who was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award.

NITV Radio was there on the Blak carpet to chat to mob about what NAIDOC means to them as well as the significance of this years theme.

NITV Radio’s Dante Brex also catches up with three passionate young people ready to become the next generation of Indigenous leaders.
