点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project aims to develop evidence-based retention strategies for the Indigenous frontline health and disability workforces. Indigenous people in these roles are critical to improving access to culturally safe and effective services and support for Indigenous Australians. The availability of culturally safe services, interventions and support will assist in closing the gap in health, education and socio-economic outcomes between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. This project aims to uncover the factors that influence Indigenous front line workers to stay in their crucial roles. The findings will be translated into culturally-appropriate workforce retention strategies.
