The educational struggles of Indigenous People are fundamentally and unequivocally concerned with the rights of Indigenous People to be Indigenous...Youth and the young have a special place in the struggle to nurture and protect Indigenous cultures. It is to them that truth and wisdom is bequeathed. - Coolangatta Statement on Indigenous Rights in Education NIYEC brings together Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people to learn about our past, understand our rights, and move towards an era of reclaiming education. Through collective action, we can create a society that deeply understands this land, where all children and young people are valued for who they are, and where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People are ultimately free.
