Be part of a vibrant, engaged network of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander professionals and non-Indigenous allies as we work towards realising Dr Lowitja O’Donoghue’s vision.

Together, we:

  • support the growth and development of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health research workforce
  • create impactful, community-driven outcomes that centralise and amplify voices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and communities
  • advocate for equity, self-determination, and systems change in policy and practice
