ABSTRACT

Improving the lives of Indigenous people irrespective of location is one of our most important priorities. Moreover, working toward reducing the gap between non-Indigenous and Indigenous people across all domains of life is critical. This includes domains related to Indigenous peoples’ physical, social and emotional, economic, cultural and spiritual, and subjective wellbeing. Also important is ensuring that we provide Indigenous children with a healthy start to life that will give them the best chance of success in school and future employment opportunities.
