The health and welfare of Australia's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples 2005This report brings together, from a variety of sources, information about the health and welfare of Australia's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Much of the data comes from sources that cover all Australians but which separately identify Indigenous Australians. The report primarily presents a broad picture at the national level, and wherever possible, uses existing and new data sources to reflect the diversity of the Indigenous population, including a separate chapter on Torres Strait Islander people. Also where possible, changes over time in the health and welfare outcomes for Indigenous people are described. Authored by ABS & AIHW. Published 26 August 2005; ISSN 1441 2004; AIHW cat. no.
