Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander immunisation

NCIRS plays an active role in promoting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people's health through a combination of activities.

At the National Centre for Immunisation Research and Surveillance (NCIRS), we are dedicated to improving the health and wellbeing of people in Australia and beyond through immunisation.

As part of this, we host the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Immunisation Leadership Committee, which is led by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander members and is supported by non-Indigenous allies.

The Committee is dedicated to improving health outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and works to contribute meaningful solutions that are designed by – and with – Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
