Abstract
Heal Country—Heal Our Nation was Australia’s 2021 National Aborigines and Islanders Day of Observance Committee (NAIDOC) theme, involving a week-long celebration that honoured the lives, history, cultures and accomplishments of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples (hereafter respectfully referred to as Indigenous).1 Heal Country called for greater protection of Indigenous Australians' lands, waters, sacred sites and cultural heritage from being misused and abused.2 Country, to Indigenous Australians, is not simply a place but is a person that sustains life—spiritually, emotionally, physically, socially and culturally—and is innately about our identity and belonging.
