On behalf of the NT Human Rights Steering Committee, and hosted by the Northern Institute, you are cordially invited to the NT Human Rights Awards 2025, The Fitzgeralds.
These awards recognise and celebrate the unsung champions of human rights who create social value and impact across the NT.
Award categories
There are four award categories, each recognising both an individual and an organisation:
- Diversity Award - For those who help everyone feel safe, welcome, and included—just as they are.
- Justice Award - For those who stand up for fairness and help people understand and use their rights.
- Social Change Award - For those who speak out and take action to make life better and fairer for others.
- Youth Award - For those who protect and support the voices, rights, and futures of young people.
Please join us and help us honour those who uphold human rights in meaningful ways across every part of our diverse Territory.
