Lisa Jackson Pulver : accentuate the positive

Research output: Contribution to journalArticle

Abstract

NEXT month, six Aboriginal Medical Service health workers will walk out of the University of NSW with public health qualifications. Another 56 Indigenous medical students are currently studying at the university — the largest Indigenous cohort in a medical program in the country — along with about 10 Aboriginal students currently working towards higher degrees across UNSW Medicine. As the Abbott government promises a renewed focus on Indigenous health, it would be wonderful to think that one day we will have health services delivered to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples that are informed by Indigenous world views and appropriate practice. However, that remains a distant ideal.
