Funded Activity Summary

This project will use innovative methods to develop a new index for measuring quality of life and wellbeing for Indigenous people. Existing tools do not capture all aspects of wellbeing and quality of life that are important to Indigenous people. A measure that is based on the values and preferences of Indigenous people will improve the relevance and transparency of clinical and health policy decision making for Indigenous Australians
