The outcomes of the Road Map consultations will form the basis of the NHMRC's strategic plan to substantially increase its commitment and support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health research over the next triennium.
Synopsis
The National Health and Medical Research Council recognised the need to develop a cohesive and coordinated approach to address the health research needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. As a consequence, the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Research Agenda Working Group (RAWG) was established as a joint undertaking between the NHMRC and OATSIH in 1997.
