Funded Activity Summary

Kidney disease has a profound impact on Indigenous Australians due to outcomes of the disease itself and consequences of treatment. Indigenous people displaced from remote areas to urban centres for dialysis for kidney disease and their families are likely to have few assets or opportunities to generate livelihoods. This study combines public health and livelihoods-based approaches to understand the livelihoods of displaced people and analyse the policy and health and community service context.
