National Faculty of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health
Improving the health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people is one of Australia’s highest health priorities. RACGP is committed to raising awareness of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health needs. As a result, the RACGP National Faculty of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health has been formed to help ‘close the gap’. By understanding the cultural context, the faculty hopes to advocate for culturally appropriate health delivery systems that will improve health outcomes for Indigenous Australians. The faculty board oversees a number of education and advocacy initiatives and held its first Annual General Meeting and Board elections in late 2011. For more information go to the faculty's November 2011 e-bulletin at: www.racgp.org.au/aboriginalhealth/ebulletin.
