Student activities and events
Aboriginal culture is diverse and varies across Australia and between Northern Territory communities.
Flinders University in the NT deliver free introductory workshops for students at each of our campus sites, which cover working with Aboriginal clients in the local context of clinical health services delivery.
There are multiple factors that influence the overall health and well-being in the Aboriginal population in Australia. Understanding these factors can contribute to better health outcomes for Aboriginal clients as health practitioners use more culturally safe, secure and holistic frameworks.
Training is focused on the local regional content where your placement is based and covers working with Aboriginal clients in the context of clinical health services. As a result of the workforce diversity in the NT, the workshop will not focus on any one discipline. Students from all health disciplines and backgrounds are encouraged to attend and work through clinical conundrums which can be applied to respective work settings.
Participants are encouraged to contribute to the workshops through the sharing of experiences, by asking questions and through respectful discussion of topics and scenarios.
