About Us
The CRC for Aboriginal Health is a collaborative research organisation that brings together Aboriginal organisations, research institutions and government agencies to deliver health-related programs to Aboriginal people.
With 12 core partners and four associate partners, the CRC for Aboriginal Health aims to:
- promote high-quality research through increased Aboriginal control of the health research agenda and through partnerships with key stakeholders in the Aboriginal health sector, government agencies and research institutions;
- undertake strategic research to investigate health conditions, health service delivery systems and the social determinants of health;
- ensure the effective transfer of research findings into policy and practice to improve primary healthcare, to build sustainable prevention and to reduce the disease burden on Aboriginal people;
- build capacity in Aboriginal people to allow greater control of health research through increased formal education and training opportunities;
- advocate in line with our communications strategy for research-informed changes to the delivery of health services to Aboriginal people.
