NAIDOC Week 2025 is here - and this year we celebrate 50 years of legacy with the theme The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacy.

RACMA stands with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in building a future grounded in equity, cultural safety and strong health leadership — guided by our Innovate Reconciliation Action Plan (2025–2027).

In August, we’ll welcome Abe Ropitini, Executive Director, Population Health at VACCHO, who will present at the President’s Forum on equity and diversity in healthcare through a First Nations lens.

Let’s reflect, learn, and lead - together.

🌏 Celebrating Harmony Week at RACMA! 🧡

This week, we recognise Harmony Week (March 18-24), a time to celebrate Australia’s cultural diversity and the strength it brings to our communities. As medical leaders, we know that inclusivity and respect are essential in creating a healthcare system that serves everyone.

At RACMA, we value the diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences of our members, candidates, and healthcare colleagues. Together, we foster an environment where everyone belongs—because when we embrace diversity, we build stronger, more compassionate leadership in medicine.

🗣️Join the conversation: What does belonging mean to you in healthcare?
