Abstract

The 6th National MenÃƒÂ¢Ã¢"šÂ¬Ã¢"žÂ¢s Health Conference, held in Melbourne in October 2005, incorporated the 4th National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Male Health Convention. Since 2003, the Australasian MenÃƒÂ¢Ã¢"šÂ¬Ã¢"žÂ¢s Health Forum ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢"šÂ¬Ã¢â‚¬Â a not-for-profit peak body for individuals and organisations working with men and boys and their health and social issues, and the organising body of the biennial national conferences ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢"šÂ¬Ã¢â‚¬Â had already been working collaboratively with the organisers of the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Male Health Convention. As a nation, we need to support Indigenous men, whose health is the poorest of all male population groups in Australia.
