Abstract

[Extract] In a recent Lancet Article, Ian Anderson and colleagues 1 recommended that governments develop national policies with sustainable health targets focused on health service delivery, access, and Indigenous data systems. Smart policy and practice decisions can be informed by research evidence about what works; however, Indigenous people worldwide have expressed concerns that much research has been done already, without corresponding improvements in their health.
