A Powerful Symbol of Identity

The Torres Strait Islander flag was designed in 1992 by Bernard Namok and formally recognised as a flag of Australia in 1995. Every element of the flag holds deep cultural meaning and expresses the identity of the Torres Strait Islander peoples, who live throughout the Torres Strait Islands and mainland Australia.

• Green Panels: Represent the land

• Blue Panel: Symbolises the surrounding sea

• Black Lines: Stand for the Torres Strait Islander people

• White Dhari (headdress): A ceremonial symbol unique to Torres Strait Islanders

• White Five-Pointed Star: Signifies the five major island groups and peace

Displaying or waving this flag shows support for Torres Strait Islander communities and reflects a shared commitment to reconciliation, diversity, and inclusion.
