We’re excited to announce the AADANT Conference 2026 will be held on 3–4 June 2026!
This year’s theme 'On Country, In Community: The Way We Work' explores how people, place and practice intersect to shape the future of AOD service delivery in the Northern Territory. The 2026 conference brings together practitioners, researchers, policymakers, peer workers and community leaders to share innovation, strengthen collaboration and discuss real-world solutions grounded in the needs of NT communities. With a strong focus on access, equity and evidence, the program highlights diverse voices and experiences from across urban, regional and remote settings, acknowledging that meaningful AOD outcomes require culturally responsive, community-informed and system-aware approaches.
AADANT is supported by funding from the Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care under the Drug and Alcohol Program.
AADANT proudly acknowledges the Larrakia people as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which our office stands and the waterways we view. We extend this acknowledgement to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people across Australia and pay our respects to Elders past, present and future.
