Event description

RECOGNITION JUSTICE AND RECKONING - 16th National Indigenous Legal Conference + Gala Dinner

Ngalaya is proud to host the 16th National Indigenous Legal Conference on Gadigal Country, 15-17 October 2023. 

Connect with Indigenous and non-Indigenous colleagues as we reflect and learn from leading practitioners, scholars and activists about Indigenous law and legal issues. This year's NILC will be particularly impactful with the timing of the Indigenous Voice to Parliament referendum.

The NILC Gala Dinner / Ngalaya Ball will celebrate First Nations excellence and involvement in the legal profession over a three course meal at Doltone House Hyde Park.


FIRST NATIONS COMMUNITY AND STUDENT SUBSIDISED/SPONSORED TICKETS

Ngalaya wishes for NILC to be accessible to all First Nations people. If you do not have financial support from an institution or employer to attend NILC, you can apply to be a sponsored/subsidised delegate.

Ngalaya will assess applications on a rolling basis as the conference approaches.

CONFERENCE SCHEDULE

The full schedule with list of papers and speakers will be published shortly.
