The Game Changers podcast celebrates those true pioneers in education who are building schools for tomorrow. In this fifth conversation of Series Thirteen, we talk with Nicole Brown a proud Larrakia woman, a social activist whose primary aim is to advance Australia’s First Nations peoples. This she does from her head and her heart. Her diverse activities include investing in young leaders, facilitating safe spaces for people to come together, initiating purpose-led events and speaking across the nation and the globe. As a strong single mum, she has a particular desire to support marginalised groups such as Indigenous girls and her Indigenous community. Her passionate advocacy and positive energy have been recognised through multiple awards including the 2022 City of Darwin Citizen of the Year and 2022 Darwin Community NAIDOC Volunteer of the Year. The thread connecting Nicole’s initiatives is pride in her heritage and her desire to see her fellow first Australians thrive and prosper. By championing First Nations people and culture at every opportunity, Nicole is changing the narrative – and, ultimately, changing the future.
