Aboriginal organisations link up to address racism in health and justice

A coalition of Aboriginal organisations are building momentum for their initiative that advocates for victims of preventable deaths within the health and justice system.   The Partnership for Justice in Health was formed in 2017 to pursue and demand a change to the shocking mortality rates of First Nations people within the two systems. It has now launched a website and is calling for national action. The initiative cites the death of Wiradjuri woman Naomi Williams and her unborn child at Tumut Hospital in January 2016 as a major catalyst for their push for change. A coronial inquest into Ms Williams death prompted that health district to address the levels of implicit bias and improve its representation of Indigenous workers.
