The Indigenous Wellbeing Conference (IWC25) is a national event celebrating Indigenous community, culture, and identity to advance social and emotional wellbeing for First Nations Australians, Māori, and Pasifika people. The conference highlights the importance of connection to country culture, spirituality and ancestry and the roles they play in wellbeing for all First Nations Australian, Māori and Pasifika people.

This years theme is ‘Walking Together, flourishing together: Pathways to Indigenous wellbeing’, bringing together Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples to conceptualise and strategise solutions for the most important wellbeing needs of all First Nations Australians, Māori and Pasifika people. Speakers will explore topics like:

• Addressing climate change through traditional ecological knowledge
• Strengthening community resilience and mental health through cultural practices
• Indigenous-led solutions for a flourishing future
• Empowering youth
• Indigenous models of care
• The role of cultural lore in shaping Indigenous legal systems
