The annual Oration honours the significant contribution of Dr David Parkin OAM in leadership, sport and education. It promotes the advancement of public knowledge by exploring the challenges and opportunities for sport to act as a driver of social change.
Unbreakable will be delivered by Jelena Dokic, former world number four tennis champion, revered sports commentator, speaker, two-time best-selling author and now with a number one documentary.
Jelena's story is a tapestry woven from threads of adversity, courage and unwavering resilience; a testament to the unbreakable human spirit and the undying power of finding one's voice, transcending the past, and thriving
against all odds.
This is a free public event held in-person at The Edge, Federation Square.
