Chronic illnesses such as diabetes, cancer and heart disease are present at much more significant levels in remote Aboriginal communities than in other communities. Through his research, Dr Alex Brown from the University of Adelaide is shedding light on this disparity and improving systems of care for Aboriginal people through training, education and informing state and national policy.

Looked this up tonight because I am enrolled and assigning myself to the task of becoming an indigenous primary health worker doing it for my kids, my family and for myself as I am so passionate about our people getting a fair go at life!

As an Indigenous Canadian this work is profound! Australian Indigenous people suffer the same atrocities we Indigenous Canadians have at the hands of colonialism, and it is people like Professor Alex Brown who are true heroes! I would like to find some of his writings to place in a major paper I am completing on Health Disparities amongst Indigenous populations.

More power to you and your team, Professor Brown. Your work is inspirational.

Great work, carry on with your research and work - please continue to highlight the continuing and negative impacts of health disparities and inequalities and support interventions to support the empowerment of Indigenous Australians. More particularly Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Services need to be supported to provide services by Aboriginals, for Aboriginals and with Aboriginals. tku.

Australian Health Services really need to get a grip on these unique health needs & risks. The Endocrine System people, the Endocrine system!

At what point does the concept of “free will” come into the equation of closing the gap ? Who decided that lifestyle choices (smoking, alcohol etc.), represented approximately only 19% of the total reasons that health outcomes aren’t being achieved ? When the cashless card, insured responsible behaviour by certain recipients and had proven to close the gap, why was it abandoned ?

IF you choose to live in the middle nowhere according to the culture and customs of illiterate, pre-agricultural, semi-nomadic, hunter-gatherer tribes, THEN you will probably have a lower standard of living than people who live in civilization.

Can you define 'civilization'?

@user-ui5bo5um8m День назад

@@liona1657 - The word 'civilization' is defined as 'a state of human society that is very developed and organized'. - In the context of my original comment civilization refers to locations with the services necessary to achieve a basic standard of living ; the cities/towns/suburbs where healthcare services, accommodation, job opportunities and educational institutions are located. Do you understand?

How about some personal responsibility? Stop making excuses.

Aboriginal people are an important part of our Australian population! As a country we have a duty to all demographic groups, helping overcome inequality regardless of its cause! Dont have such a provincial mind.

@@beth387 *"Aboriginal people are an important part of our Australian population!"* - Aboriginals are no more important than Australians in general. - If an Australian chooses to live in the middle of nowhere, where there are limited healthcare, education and job opportunities then that's on them. *" As a country we have a duty to all demographic groups, helping overcome inequality regardless of its cause! "* IF you choose to live in the middle nowhere according to the culture and customs of illiterate, pre-agricultural, semi-nomadic, hunter-gatherer tribes, THEN you will probably have a lower standard of living than people who live in civilization. There is no moral duty to overcome inequality for these kinds of self-inflicted problems.
