Funding Amount
$2,500,000.00
Summary
We are leading maternity care reform in partnership with First Nation communities and heath services. Our hands-on research has seen unprecedented improvements in maternal and infant health for First Nation families. We would drive expansion to more communities using our innovative RISE Framework: Redesign the health service; Invest in the health and research workforce; Strengthen family capacity; and Embed First Nations governance for the best start in life for First Nation families.
This CRE is innovative because it brings new Aboriginal knowledge and perspectives into services for Aboriginal people. Led by Aboriginal researchers, the CRE will develop ways to empower Aboriginal people both as research leaders and how they engage with services. It will focus on positive pathways and overcome barriers to successful implementation to produce better health and wellbeing for all Aboriginal people.
