Join us for UQ's RAP NAIDOC celebration as we mark "50 Years of Deadly", celebrating five decades of honouring the strength, resilience, achievements and enduring contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

We are honoured to welcome Dean Parkin, UQ alumnus (Bachelor of Arts – Politics and Journalism, 2003), as our special guest speaker.
