Smoking rates among the Indigenous population are the biggest contributor to the life expectancy gap, while research has shown that gambling is causing significantly more harm in the Indigenous compared with the general Australian population. This project will apply public health approaches to reducing tobacco use and minimising harms associated with commercial and non-commercial gambling among the Indigenous population.

土著人口的吸烟率是造成预期寿命差距的最大因素，而研究表明，与澳大利亚普通人口相比，赌博对土著人口造成的伤害要大得多。该项目将采用公共卫生方法，减少烟草使用，并尽量减少土著人口中与商业和非商业赌博有关的危害。
