The remote Kimberley region of Western Australia (WA) has the highest proportion of Aboriginal residents in Australia, with many living in remote Aboriginal communities where attachment to land, traditional culture, family, and community is strong. Over the past 15 years we have steadily developed what is now an effective regional approach to Aboriginal health research, working in close collaboration with the Kimberley Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Services (ACCHS), and WA Country Health Service. This involves working towards Kimberley rather than externally imposed priorities for research.
Most of our research has been translated into policy and practice. This has included substantial amounts of work on developing healthcare practice guidelines, proposing and encouraging local research to develop translatable evidence, evaluate processes and implement this evidence to improve service delivery in the Kimberley. The following guidelines have been updated based on evidence from our research: Diabetes Type II (2007, 2015, 2020); Diabetes in Pregnancy (2017); Diabetes in Young People (under revision); Healthy Living (under revision); Smoking Cessation (2016); Preconception Care (2019); Perinatal Depression (2019); Iron Deficiency and Iron in Pregnancy (2015); and Family and Domestic Violence (2015).
Broad stakeholder engagement and consultation are key factors in the successful operation of my research, and dissemination and implementation of results into healthcare service provision for Aboriginal people. This is done through well-established, mutually respectful partnerships. Since 2006 I have provided over 50 community feedback sessions and in-services to clinic staff, a public webinar, co-authored 48 plain language reports that I widely disseminate. I have given 16 media interviews and had research results published in industry newsletters (NACCHO, Lowitja, MJA inSight), and reported in the media (newspapers, SBS, ABC radio and News-24, Goolarri).
I am co-lead on the following projects that have received over $10.2M in funding:
