Close the Gap Day "Voyage to Voice: Treaty, Truth and Beyond"

On-demand recorded 25 Mar 2024

Close the Gap Day is recognised on the third Thursday of March, encouraging people to take meaningful action towards health equity for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Each year, the Close the Gap Campaign – a community-led campaign for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health equity – develops a report profiling examples of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander excellence, innovation, and leadership from all corners of Australia.

To recognise the day this year, RACGP Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health invites all Members to join our Close the Gap Day webinar. During this discussion, we’ll learn more about the Campaign and unpack this year’s theme "Voyage to Voice: Treaty, Truth and Beyond"
