Making a difference building research capacity for health interventions to improve Aboriginal health

该方案将培养制定和评价干预方案的技能，以改善土著居民的健康状况。它将侧重于生活在城市和区域中心的土著人的健康，并审查（一）儿童和青少年健康和（二）慢性病。该方案由两名土著人领导，将培养六名土著早期职业研究人员和另外三名非土著背景的研究人员的能力。新南威尔士州土著卫生和医学研究理事会和11个土著卫生服务机构通过现有的研究方案结成伙伴关系。该方案利用了主要申请人在干预研究方面的广泛技能，并将为小组调查员提供机会，从事土著健康方面的主要资助研究方案。该方案将发展干预研究方面的技能，能够为土著卫生政策提供证据基础。它将在以下方面进行能力建设：㈠发展与土著社区的研究伙伴关系; ㈡确定可能有效的干预措施; ㈢调查保健干预措施的影响; ㈣将研究与政策结合起来。

The program will build skills in the development and evaluation of intervention programs to improve Aboriginal health outcomes. It will focus on the health of Aboriginal people living in urban and regional centres and examine (i) child and adolescent health and (ii) chronic disease. The program is lead by two indigenous people and will build capacity in six indigenous early career researchers and a further three from non-indigenous backgrounds. The Aboriginal Health and Medical Research Council of NSW and 11 Aboriginal health services are partners through existing research programs. The program draws on extensive skills in intervention research among the Lead Applicants and will provide opportunities for the Team Investigators to work on major funded research programs in Aboriginal health. The program will develop skills in intervention research capable of providing an evidence base to inform Aboriginal health policy. It will build capacity in (i) the development of research partnerships with Aboriginal communities; (ii) the identification of potentially effective interventions; (iii) the investigation of the impact of health interventions; and, (iv) the integration of research with policy.
