The National Aboriginal Conference (NAC) was a national organisation established by the Australian Government to represent Indigenous Australians, that is Aboriginal Australians and Torres Strait Islander peoples. The Conference is known for its recommendation of a form of treaty between Aboriginal peoples and the Australian Government, using the Yolngu word makarrata to describe this. Relations between the Conference and the Commonwealth Government progressively deteriorated over the course of its life, and the Conference was eventually abolished by the Hawke Government in 1985.

| - The National Aboriginal Conference (NAC) was a national organisation established by the Australian Government to represent Indigenous Australians, that is Aboriginal Australians and Torres Strait Islander peoples. The NAC was originally established as the National Aboriginal Consultative Committee in 1973 by the Whitlam Government with a principal function to advise the Department of Aboriginal Affairs and the Minister on issues of concern to Indigenous peoples. Its members were elected by Indigenous people. The reorganisation of the Committee into the National Aboriginal Conference did little to fundamentally alter the characteristics of the original Committee: The Conference’s members too were selected by Indigenous peoples, and it remained in an advisory role. Although Indigenous leaders desired the Conference (and previously the Committee) to take on a greater and more direct role in the creation of policy, the organisation maintained an advisory role over the course of its existence. However, these leaders found political leverage in the Conference. They utilised this leverage, and through actions on the international stage and in domestic media campaigns, the Conference was able to exert pressure on the Governments of the day to adopt a more involved approach to Aboriginal affairs. The Conference is known for its recommendation of a form of treaty between Aboriginal peoples and the Australian Government, using the Yolngu word makarrata to describe this. Relations between the Conference and the Commonwealth Government progressively deteriorated over the course of its life, and the Conference was eventually abolished by the Hawke Government in 1985.

- De National Aboriginal Conference (NAC) was een Australisch adviesorgaan dat de Aboriginals in het land vertegenwoordigde en voortgekomen was uit de National Aboriginal Consultative Committee (NACC). Het bestond tussen 1977 en 1985. De NAC bracht advies uit aan de regering in kwesties aangaande de Aboriginals. De NAC had geen uitvoerende macht, waardoor de politieke invloed beperkt bleef. Net als zijn voorganger, de NACC, stond de NAC daarom op gespannen voet met het ministerie voor Aboriginalzaken. Daarnaast had het adviesorgaan ook met interne strubbelingen te kampen. De belangen van de verschillende Aboriginalgroepen die in de NAC waren vertegenwoordigd, liepen vaak zo ver uiteen dat het moeilijk was om tot een gezamenlijk standpunt te komen. Veel Aboriginalleiders en -organisaties erkenden de NAC daarom niet als officiële vertegenwoordiger. Activist , zelf een Aboriginal, speelde een centrale rol binnen de NAC. Hij werd in mei 1984 tot nationale voorzitter gekozen. De NAC was de eerste Aboriginalorganisatie die een officieel voorstel voor een Aboriginalverdrag deed. (nl)
