The Close the Gap Campaign

The Close the Gap Campaign is an initiative aimed at addressing and reducing health disparities between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and non-Indigenous Australians. Launched by the Australian government and supported by various organizations, the campaign focuses on improving access to healthcare, education, and economic opportunities. Its goal is to ensure equitable health outcomes and improve the overall quality of life for Indigenous communities, acknowledging the historical challenges they face. By promoting collaboration, awareness, and targeted health strategies, the campaign seeks to close the health gap for future generations.
