| There are marked disparities in the health status
and in the key determinants of health between the Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australian
population. Addressing this disparity will require attention to the underlying
determinants of health in addition to an improvement in services. Examination of indigenous health programs overseas
has identified a number of strategies which appear to be responsible for improvement in
the health status of indigenous populations. These strategies are the subject of another
lecture: “Strategies and approaches in Indigenous health”.
