21 - About Closing the Gap

I am joined this week by Dr Michelle Bovill and Jessica Bennett who both work in research in Indigenous Health, to talk about Closing the Gap. What does it involve? Why is it so important? How have past injustices impacted the health and well-being of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people today? What can non-indigenous allies do to help? This is a really important conversation for anyone wanting more of an understanding of the differing and complex needs of First Nations' People, and why they are not being adequately met by the current structure of healthcare.
