CENTRE OF RESEARCH EXCELLENCE (CRE) IN PARTNERSHIP PATHWAYS TO BETTER CARE AND OUTCOMES FOR ABORIGINAL YOUNG PEOPLE

Abstract

Childhood and adolescence is a critical period during which chronic disease in Indigenous Australians can be prevented. Using long-term data and established partnerships developed over 10-15 years from two large studies of young Aboriginal people, this team of Indigenous and non-Indigenous researchers with expertise in child health, epidemiology, health services research, and implementation science will identify and test pathways to improved care and health outcomes for young Aboriginal people.
