The CRC for Aboriginal Health was established
in 2003 following in the footsteps of the CRC for Aboriginal and
Tropical Health.
The CRC for Aboriginal Health is a
virtual organisation that brings together the Aboriginal health
sector, government health agencies and research institutions to
ensure that research conducted into Aboriginal health:
- is driven by priorities set by Aboriginal
people themselves;
- is of practical use and transferred
expeditiously in an accessible form to the Aboriginal health
sector; and
- results in the development of research
capacity within the Aboriginal community itself.
The CRC for Aboriginal Health is
governed by an Aboriginal-majority board with representation from
all its core partners.
