NIYEC backs the voice and agency of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people and students to assert our collective rights to education. 

Why we do this

Australia’s education system has historically excluded Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander learners from accessing a quality, relevant education. Our young people are knowledge producers and custodians of the longest continuing cultures in the world. It’s time for our learning systems to match the ambitions we have for ourselves and the future of our Nations.
