IHM Scholarship for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander

IHM: Innovate Reconciliation (Connecting Together) Action Plan of (July 2021 – July 2023)

The Institute of Health & Management (IHM) wishes to work with and engage within our local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to advocate with the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and their communities in a culturally sensitive and safe way. As IHM is a training organisation, we will develop partnerships with our local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and their communities as well as organisations that would share our common goal to work collaboratively in response to being more culturally safe and aware which is part of APHRA’s health professionals roles and responsibilities to be culturally safe. These same principles are embedded in the charter of education in relation to the teaching and recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander knowledge.
