A Flag with Deep Cultural Meaning

The Torres Strait Islander flag was created by the late Bernard Namok of Thursday Island and officially recognised as a flag of Australia in 1995. Every element of the design reflects the identity and traditions of the Torres Strait Islander peoples, who inhabit the islands between the tip of Queensland and Papua New Guinea.

• Green Panels represent the land

• Blue symbolises the sea, central to island life

• Black Lines reflect the people and their resilience

• White Dhari (headdress) is a cultural symbol of Torres Strait Islander identity

• Five-pointed white star denotes peace and the five major island groups

Waving this flag respectfully acknowledges the strength, heritage, and enduring contributions of Torres Strait Islander communities across the country.
