Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples health
According to the AIHW report Australia’s Health 2008 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are generally less healthy than other Australians, die at much younger ages, have more disability and a lower quality of life. Despite improvements in Indigenous death rates, the overall gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people appears to be widening. However, the gap in death rates between Indigenous infants and other Australian infants is narrowing.
In 2009 NHMRC research funding expenditure for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health was more than $38 million for 167 active research grants, a 25% increase in funding from 2008.
