Funded Activity Summary

Despite the high standard of health experienced in Australia in general, a disproportionate burden of cancer adversely impacts Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians. This research will identify the supportive care needs, quality of life, and patterns of care of Indigenous cancer patients and through engagement with Indigenous cancer survivors, community organisations and government and non-government agencies disseminate and translate these findings into policy and practice.
