Indigenous Health Research

The Indigenous Health Unit is working hard to develop its research profile. To date the Footprints Forwards project has been our main research activity. This project comprised a number of qualitative and quantitative research components. The final report of the project made a number of key recommendations that are currently being scoped for implementation.

Other research currently being carried out by IHU staff involves a study of mental health in Indigenous communities (Anton Isaacs), reconciliation issues (Marlene Drysdale) and an examination of the risk and protective factors that influence the mental health of Indigenous people in Gippsland (Hilton Gruis).
