Abstract
#JustJustice is a crowd-funded campaign that produced a series of articles at Croakey. These have been packaged into a free e-book. The articles and the book highlight the wide-ranging health impacts of over-incarceration upon Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples, families and communities, and take a strengths-based approach to identifying solutions. The #JustJustice project developed out of conversations with Aboriginal health leaders, including Dr Tom Calma and the former Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Social Justice Commissioner Mick Gooda. It took a solutions-focused approach, and identified ways that politicians, policy makers and the wider community can tackle over-incarceration. It aims to help politicians, policy makers, the health sector and the wider community to understand that over-incarceration is a critical public health issue.
