Masters Research - Master of Social Science

I identify as Koori and belong to the Worimi and Bundjalung peoples of N.S.W. I grew up in the inner city suburb of Waterloo and spent school holidays at Port Stephens with my Grandparents who informed me of the world, the ways of the ‘Old People’ and our link with them. I also developed links to my Father’s north coast country and to a pan-Aboriginal community in Sydney. At a meeting at the Aborigines Progressive Association I met Wayne and we have been married for 41 years. We have one daughter Kathleen and we are enjoying a ‘second parenthood’ with grandchildren Phoebe, Andrew and Harrie. Through my writing I hope to contribute to overturn the myths, which continue to oppress my people. This thesis uses the method of tribalography developed by Choctaw author LeAnne Howe (2002) to contextualise my life experience and research journey as part of the broader Indigenous encounter with modernity. In reviewing the literature relevant to this area I expand on the concept of tribalography to make this a foundational philosophy in approaching Aboriginal women’s autobiography. As such the three key works cited are part of my extended kinship network. I also engage with the debate on the differences between Western and Indigenous knowledges and a general historical overview of colonial and twentieth century attitudes and policies towards Aboriginal peoples to provide the external context of the life histories discussed. Methodologically, I use different voices, from a naturalistic representation of oral history to a literature-based analysis of theory and historical events. This includes an analysis of the family photographs for their value in oral history and ethnographic insight. I also use other forms of primary source material such as newsletters from the organisations that I was involved in during the 1960’s and the Dawn magazine, which was the official newsletter for the Aborigines Welfare Board. I also include collaboratively written work with my daughter that exemplifies the multi-generational continuance of tribalography.

▼ ObjectiveThe aim of this PhD research was to quantify the burden of unintentional injury hospitalisation in Aboriginal children in NSW and to identify priorities for injury prevention.MethodsThe research comprised a systematic review of the international literature and a series of four epidemiological studies using linked hospital data for New South Wales from July 2000 to March 2014. The main study design was a retrospective birth cohort including 1,088,645 non-Aboriginal and 35,749 Aboriginal children. Results The systematic review showed that worldwide indigenous children suffer higher hospitalisation and mortality rates from unintentional injury compared with their non-indigenous counterparts. The analyses of hospital data for NSW showed that Aboriginal children have a 1.6 times higher risk of unintentional injury hospitalisation from birth till age 13 compared with non-Aboriginal children. For 66 of 69 injury mechanisms studied, Aboriginal children had higher injury rates compared with non-Aboriginal children and for 33 of these the rates were at least twofold higher compared with non-Aboriginal children.Falls were the external cause group with the largest absolute inequalities between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal children (154 per 100,000 person years). The largest relative inequalities were observed for poisoning (HR 2.7, 95% CI 2.4-3.0) and burns (HR 2.4, 95% CI 2.1-2.7) and hospitalisation rates for flame burns were up to 10 times higher in Aboriginal compared with non-Aboriginal children. Adjusting for geographic clustering reduced the inequalities in unintentional injury hospitalisation between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal children (HR 1.4, 95% CI 1.4-1.5), but differences remained. In-depth analysis of burn injury showed that Aboriginal children suffer a higher proportion of severe burns, have longer periods of hospital stay and are less likely to be treated at a hospital with a tertiary burns unit compared with non-Aboriginal children.ConclusionUnintentional injuries are a major cause of ill health in Aboriginal children and health inequalities between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal children in NSW. This PhD research made an original contribution to knowledge by exploring the detailed mechanisms that underpin these inequalities, quantifying the contributions of geography and risk factors, and identifying specific targets for injury prevention in Aboriginal children.

▼ Abstract This doctoral thesis argues that Aboriginal languages have a special constitutional status under section 35 (1) of the Constitution Act, 1982. It also sets out the broad lines of how constitutional recognition could be achieved. Using the framework established by the Van der Peet case (that in order for an Aboriginal activity to be recognized as an Aboriginal right it must be demonstrated as a practice, custom, and tradition at the time of contact with a “modest” ability to evolve”) this thesis argues that special constitutional status must be obtained due to four reasons. First, Aboriginal customary law forms the basis for Aboriginal language rights and a duty to transmit language to future generations. Using inter-customary and historical language practices between European and Aboriginal peoples this thesis also suggest that linguistic exchange created a unique body of law and formed the basis for relationships between diverse cultures and national groups. Secondly, this thesis traces the disruption Canada’s assimilation policies have had on Aboriginal languages, particular in educational policy and residential schools. It is argued this was a violation of Canada’s common law as inter-customary law and Aboriginal language rights was not extinguished or surrendered by law or treaty. This forms a large part of what the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada has called Canada’s “cultural genocide” – a practice successive federal governments have admitted as wrong and now commit to rectifying in policy and practice. Thirdly, Aboriginal languages as ongoing parts of Aboriginal customs, practices, and traditions today, this thesis cites Aboriginal people’s advocacy for language preservation and promotion through law; ongoing attempts to express constitutional recognition regionally; the unwritten principles of the Canada’s constitution; and government recognition of the centrality of Aboriginal language through constitutional negotiations, national studies and Royal Commissions. Fourthly, it is asserted that International law is a crucial arena in which Aboriginal language rights can, has, and should be asserted.

▼ Meaningful and ongoing consultations are critical to Indigenous selfdetermination in Canada and Australia. Consultations are the processes by which organizations and Indigenous communities meet to discuss actions that could potentially affect Indigenous rights or interests. This education thesis is about a community-based partnership study that applies the Aterihwihsón:sera Kaswénta (Two Row Wampum) as a relational framework to investigate how two Indigenous communities across the world— the Carcross/Tagish First Nation (C/TFN) in Yukon, Canada and the Narungga Community of Point Pearce (NCPP) in South Australia—can create and implement online tools to support consultation processes compatible with Indigenous legal traditions, and facilitate more meaningful, equitable, and effective consultations. In total, 64 participants from the two aforementioned communities/countries took part in this study. Thematic content analysis of this data, along with literature, participant observation, and digital ethnography revealed that there is an overall lack of consultation with the C/TFN, NCPP, and other Indigenous communities. Moreover, it found that existing consultations tend to be ambiguous, fraught with process breakdowns, tokenistic, colonizing, oppressive, ineffective, and lacking community engagement. While the study suggests that technology can be an important tool (in addition to in-person meetings) in consultations, and several leading practices were identified, the key finding is that the most significant determining factor of the meaningfulness of consultations is relationships. Within the Kaswénta framework, a relationship-based approach is characterized by three interconnected principles: 1) equality, 2) distinction and self-determination, and 3) harmonious, and interdependent co-existence. Time was also shown to be an important element. This education thesis research has helped to build Information Communication Technology (ICT), consultation, and research capacity among the C/TFN and NCPP participants. It has also helped to build a relationship among these communities and the University of Wollongong that stands to foster future projects of importance. Moreover, it contributes to the body of Indigenous, academic, and practical knowledge on Indigenous consultations and e learning in Canada and Australia, including in a comparative context. Perhaps most significantly, it honours the Kaswénta and introduces it as a relational framework for meaningful consultations with Indigenous communities.

▼ Background The aim of this study is to understand what contributes to the resilience of Aboriginal women in Australia. It is a strengths-based study, which draws upon Aboriginal women’s stories of survival to investigate the factors which support, or detract from this resilience. Although Aboriginal women belong to one of the most disadvantaged groups in Australia today, they have survived a very dark history fraught with discrimination, racism, assimilation, sexual exploitation and abuse and the removal of children from their families. The historical narratives written by Aboriginal women and the interviews that were undertaken as part of this research speak of trauma and of triumph. They reveal the strategies used to overcome hardships, providing insight into what makes and keeps our strong women strong. Methods This research, conducted by an Aboriginal Woman using Indigenous methodologies, provides a comprehensive review of the literature relating to resilience, particularly with Indigenous groups around the world and more specifically resilience literature related to Australian Aboriginal people. It examines literature written by Aboriginal women and describes findings from 12 interviews with Aboriginal women conducted to explore the challenges they face, the supports they draw on, the strategies they use and the specific things they avoid to remain strong or resilient. Results This research provides distinct findings with regard to Aboriginal women and resilience in Australia. Most of these insights came from the analysis of the interviews in which women identified some specific factors that support (protective) and detract from (risk factors) resilience, not previously highlighted in the available literature. For protective factors, these include: 1. The significant influence of Aboriginal matriarchs or strong Aboriginal women on the strength of women; the inner strength of our women is supported by a strong sense of identity and driven by the responsibility to stay strong for family and community. 2. The ability to operate between two worlds (Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal) and to use all available resources to enhance strength and resilience; using withdrawal or isolation from extreme situations to heal and re-charge. 3. The utilisation of culturally appropriate counselling to deal with more complex issues relating generally to extreme trauma and unacceptable levels of family violence, alcohol and drugs. The risk factors affecting resilience include: 1. Difficulties accessing information from services; 2. Negative people; compounding challenges and trauma; and the extreme risk these pose to wellbeing of Australian Aboriginal women. Conclusion The term ‘resilience’ is not generally used by Aboriginal Australians; the words strong, strength and wellbeing are commonly used. Australian Aboriginal people have many synergies with other Indigenous peoples around the world with regard to research on resilience. The similarities for protective factors include culture, family, land, language, spirituality.

▼ This work is an attempt to understand and lessen the borders that exist between Indigenous knowledge and Eurocentric science. I contend that the two groups represent distinct cultures and that it is important to look at the differences and similarities that occur in language use as the two communicate on issues of mutual concern. I argue that discourse can shape knowledge in two very distinct ways within two different modes of thought; a narrative mode that is used primarily by the Aboriginal community and a scientific mode that is utilized primarily by the scientists. The research involves discourse analysis as a means of studying a unique opportunity to compare and contrast two cultures speaking on the topic of preservation of caribou in the Northwest Territories of northern Canada. Although the intention of both the Aboriginal community members and the Eurocentric scientists are the same; to preserve the caribou numbers that exist in the North, the differences in language use can create turbulence between the borders of the two cultures. I argue that this analysis will assist in comprehending and mitigating the borders that have been created that now impact life in the North. In addition, this work represents an autobiographical journey that proposes curriculum theory as a reconceptualization of the current mindset of Eurocentric scientists and science educators. While governments, government agencies, and resource management boards continue to try and bridge the borders between Aboriginal peoples and Eurocentric agents, they may find that they are better served by reconceptualizing how they view and share knowledge. Curriculum theory provides an option to not only imagine a different future but also provides strategies for looking inwards and evaluating one's own method of knowledge sharing. Aboriginal people and Eurocentric scientists both have a vested interest in protecting and maintaining caribou populations in northern Canada, but how they communicate those intentions to each other is critical if collaboration is to be possible and understanding how each other uses language can be a valuable aid in mitigating those borders.

Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

This three year case study examines the key design features and methodology required to develop a website that best reflects the culture of an Indigenous Australian community. The study also considers general issues related to the representation and capture of Indigenous knowledge. The Wollotuka project is grounded in previous contextual design work. The aim was to investigate two main questions: what key design features should be incorporated into a website to meet the requirements of an Aboriginal community and what culturally acceptable process can be used to capture these requirements? The Wollotuka project adopted an iterative prototyping approach that built on previous knowledge concerning Indigenous design elements. The user-centred design process engaged closely with 12 members of the local Aboriginal & Islander community throughout the process. The ethnographic process included a focus group discussion and one-on-one interviews. The final design incorporated a virtual tour of the building and the grounds. Within the tour are situated other key features such as storytelling, video, Aboriginal art, humour, music and dance, messages from community members, a facility for feedback and some simple interactive games. Many existing guidelines for Aboriginal cultural design were affirmed in the study, including the use of simple language, local imagery and the provision of an interaction style appropriate to the Indigenous group. A number of helpful guidelines related to Aboriginal culture and design features were identified in the project. The project also identified important guidelines regarding a culturally acceptable design process for an Indigenous community. Overall, the community-based design process used in the Wollotuka project met with approval from all members of the group. Interviews with the project participants highlighted the importance of this close community involvement in the design process. It can be concluded that the respect for traditions is paramount and that practices can vary significantly between varying Indigenous groups. The design features identified as most appropriate to capture the cultural identity of the group were also evaluated, by considering them in terms of Hofstede’s cultural model. Hofstede’s cultural dimensions have been frequently used to study the way culture impacts on web design. Some correlations have been measured between Hofstede’s cultural dimensions, including the structural and aesthetic design features used in websites from different cultures. To perform this final analysis, a survey of the community group was completed, to position them in terms of Hofstede’s dimensions. A comparison was then made on the key design features identified from the Wollotuka project and the outcomes that might be expected, given the low position of the group on each of Hofstede’s five cultural dimensions. The results of this analysis were mixed. There were some good correlations and some disagreements between the Wollotuka project…

▼ Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) can be managed effectively with antiretroviral (ARV) therapy. However, Indigenous peoples living with HIV (IPLWH) in Canada are less likely than non-Indigenous peoples living with HIV to access and adhere to ARV therapy. To date, most studies examining this issue aim for statistical generalization and do not focus enough on contextual factors. To investigate this imbalance, a collaborative research effort called the Indigenous Red Ribbon Storytelling Study (IRRSS) was developed by the study investigator and 11 community partners. The purpose of the IRRSS was to examine how IPLWH construct and understand their experiences of ARV therapy use. The study used an Indigenous qualitative research design, critical ethnography, and a community-based participatory research orientation. Study participants included adults from two cities in Saskatchewan. Informed consent was obtained from all study participants, who also accepted a traditional offering of tobacco. The study involved two Indigenous sharing circle interviews comprising a total of 15 key informants including IPLWH, 20 individual IPLWH interviews, six IPLWH participant observation sessions, and a survey of socio-demographic and health information. Thematic data analysis was conducted using the Behavioral Model of Health Services Use and sensitizing concepts within the context of critical Indigenous qualitative research. Themes included holistic health care, culture, family and friends, and the value placed on respect and trust. The majority of IPLWH live with three interacting dimensions of social vulnerabilities. Their identity living with HIV is compounded by their substance use disorder and their social contexts as a culture-sharing group impacted by relations with the Nation State of Canada. Nonetheless, they are able to adapt positively to adversity, especially when appropriate underlying socio-structural mechanisms are in place to support their resilience. Recommendations were developed to improve the lives of IPLWH, most notably to involve IPLWH in anything that affects their lives, including needle exchange programs and holistic health care that is founded on Indigenous values, cultures and beliefs. Any consideration of access to, acceptance of and adherence to ARV therapy among IPLWH should view biomedical, behavioural and social aspects of care for IPLWH as an integrative system.

▼ Background The Australian Home Medicines Review (HMR) has been found to be an important tool to raise awareness of medication safety, reduce adverse events and improve medication adherence. The HMR program consists of pharmacists reviewing patients’ medicines at their homes and reporting findings to their general practitioners (GPs) to optimise medicine management. Under-use of medicines contributes to poorer control of chronic disease states, higher hospital admissions and increased morbidity and mortality for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are “under-serviced” by the HMR program and are the most likely of all Australians to miss out on HMRs despite their high burden of chronic disease and high rates of hospitalisation due to medication misadventure. The 2008 Campbell report commissioned by the Australian Government called for the urgent introduction of a more culturally appropriate model of HMRs and for expanded HMR services to Aboriginal Australians. To date these recommendation have not been implemented. Very little research has been conducted in the area of medication management and cognitive pharmacy services for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people or the role of pharmacists in Aboriginal health. Goal To ascertain the usefulness of medication review and inform medication review program design for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people by understanding barriers and facilitators to utilisation of the HMR program from patient, pharmacist and Aboriginal Health Service provider perspectives. Methods This was a descriptive, qualitative study. Aboriginal Health Services of various sizes and locations were chosen as the sites for recruitment of patients and providers. Focus groups were conducted to collect patients’ views. Eighteen semi-structured focus groups with 102 Aboriginal and Torres Strait participants were conducted at 11 AHSs. Participants were Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients, taking multiple medicines, who attended AHSs and who spoke English. Semi-structured interviews were used to explore perceptions of AHS health professional staff to the HMR program. Thirty-one semi-structured interviews were conducted with health professionals at 11 AHSs. Fourteen Aboriginal Health Workers (AHWs), five nurses, one manager and 11 GPs participated. Focus groups and interviews were recorded, de-identified and transcribed. Transcripts were coded and analysed thematically. A cross-sectional survey was used to gather demographic, qualitative and quantitative data from Australian pharmacists (n=187) accredited to undertake HMR. The survey consisted of 39 items which included closed, open-ended and Likert scale questions. Data were extracted from the online survey tool and analysed. Descriptive statistics were used to explore the quantitative data, whilst qualitative data were thematically analysed and coded for emergent themes. Results Both patients and health professionals viewed a culturally appropriate medication review as a very…

▼ This thesis charts the development of the modern discipline of Aboriginal archaeology and the shifting cultural and political climate in which it has emerged. It is a history of the people, places and ideas that have shaped our understanding of ancient Australia. Each chapter explores an individual’s relationship with an archaeological site or region, beginning with John Mulvaney’s excavation at Fromm’s Landing (Tungawa) and Isabel McBryde’s field surveys across New England. These interwoven portraits reveal the changes within the discipline from the 1950s through to the era of the Mabo and Wik decisions of 1992 and 1996. They also offer an episodic view of how archaeological insights have filtered into the public sphere. The chapters explore the controversy that engulfed Rhys Jones with the release of the film The Last Tasmanian and the tragic repercussions of Richard and Betsy Gould’s ethno-archaeological work in the Western Desert. They reflect on the place of the Willandra Lakes, Arnhem Land and the Franklin River in the national imagination and the powerful roles played by Aboriginal leaders such as Alice Kelly, Frank Gurrmanamana and Rosalind Langford in shaping research in these regions. The chapters also address the early history of rock art research in Australia, debates about social change over millennia and the discovery of Pleistocene dates for colonisation. Interspersed throughout are short ‘interludes’ that analyse the institutional development of the discipline and the rise of the parallel field of Aboriginal history. Although influenced by international ideas, Australian archaeology is distinctive for its close engagement with the culture and politics of the first Australians and their histories of invasion, dispossession, adaptation and self-determination. This thesis argues that the richness of Indigenous history is to be found not only in its depth, but also in its dynamism and diversity over time. It makes the case for the immense archaeological story that has been uncovered and interpreted over the past sixty years to be recognised as the opening chapters of Australian history.

▼ The largest percentage of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders in Australia live in Sydney. Despite this large Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population, there is there is very little recorded evidence of a prominent artistic presence of Aboriginal theatre-makers who are creating new, contemporary expressions of urban culture. From 2007-2011, PACT centre for emerging artists (PACT) created a series of Aboriginal-specific opportunities and programs for emerging, urban, Aboriginal theatre-makers who were interested in experimenting in new methods of creation and exploring their urban, lived experience. These opportunities generated a small, critical mass of Aboriginal theatre-makers. The program was in many aspects successful, however it also faced various challenges and misunderstandings. When one of the participating artists, Björn Stewart, presented a new performance work that expressed confusion, dislike and a sense of manipulation in the opportunities he was being offered as an artist by various organisations, it highlighted that perhaps the opportunities being offered to these theatre-makers were not what was perceived as being needed, and that there are varying motivations, agendas and expectations behind such opportunities by those providing them. This study identifies three key stakeholders who contribute to different points of the development of opportunities and new Aboriginal works: the funding body, the arts organisation and the artists. Using PACT’s Aboriginal-specific opportunities as a case study, this research set out to discover: (i) if current opportunities being offered to urban, emerging, Aboriginal theatre-makers are effective; (ii) what are the stakeholders’ perceptions about what is required; and most importantly, (iii) do these perceptions align with each other, and if not, what is the impact on Sydney, urban, emerging Aboriginal theatre-makers? To date, there has been no record of emerging, urban, theatre-makers having been consulted or given the opportunity to voice what they believe an emerging, urban, Aboriginal theatre-maker requires to “emerge”. This study begins that record.

▼ Background First Nation pregnant women experience five times the rate of admission to intensive care from influenza compared with non-First Nations women despite the influenza vaccine being found to be safe and effective in pregnancy. Preliminary coverage data already indicates a gap in immunisation coverage between First Nations women and others. To understand this gap this research explored stories around the experience of pregnancy and immunisation through the eyes of the participating communities and the researcher. Method The study employed a community-based participatory action research (PAR) framework with decolonising methodologies. Based on the oral tradition of Murri culture, semi-structured interviews (talking listening and yarning) with Mums, family members and key stakeholders were undertaken. Twenty-five interviews were conducted along with two yarning circles. Interviews were recorded and notes taken. PAR phases of planning, action, observation and reflection were conducted. Results Five main themes emerged from the data and recommendations for action: Special Bond & Celebrating Survival, “It connects family on so many levels, past and present and future”; Believe In Immunisation, “I don’t think I have ever seen anyone in our community refuse to get their child immunised”; Fear/Trust Balance, “Trust takes a long time to build but can be easily damaged”; Cultural Safety; and Ways Forward. Discussion Gaba Binggi in the language of my people (Gomeroi), and means good needles. This is how immunisation is seen, more than acceptance but a stronger sense of “good needles”. The past, present and future are inextricably connected and this needs to be embraced by health services. What has gone before impacts today and what we do today about immunisation in pregnancy speaks into the future. Conclusion Pregnancy is deeply important to families and culture. The balance of fear and trust is integral in decisions about immunisation during pregnancy. Current services that provide immunisation to pregnant First Nations women must be designed to be culturally safe, flexible and empathetic to family and community issues. They must name and address racism in all its forms and further culturally safe research needs to be undertaking surrounding immunisation during pregnancy for/with/by First Nations peoples.

▼ This thesis aims to identify reasons for the persistently poor perinatal health of Aboriginal infants using linked routinely-collected data. Multigenerational studies using such data are possible with Western Australia’s (WA) database of family relationships. Health records of Aboriginal infants born in WA from 1980 to 2011 and their relatives’ records were linked. Two methodological challenges are examined, followed by risks to perinatal health within a single generation, then over two generations. The first challenge followed a discovery that 18% of the children did not have a birth registration. Their mothers were more likely to be young and from remote areas. From a research perspective, this disadvantaged group are more likely to be excluded from studies using this dataset. The second challenge was the inconsistent recording of Aboriginal status in datasets and the poor understanding of the relative performance of algorithms used to identify who is Aboriginal. The consistency with which the algorithms assigned Aboriginal status to family members was assessed. The best-performing algorithm was then supplemented with relatives’ information to further improve consistency. Third, the contribution of maternal health behaviours to perinatal health was estimated. Of 28,119 births from 1998 to 2010, 27% of infants were small for gestational age (SGA), preterm, and/or died perinatally. Half (51%) of the infants were exposed in utero to maternal smoking, alcohol misuse, drug misuse, and/or assault and 37% of SGA births, 16% of preterm births, and 20% of perinatal deaths were attributable to these factors. Finally, fetal programming has been put forward as a contributor to poor health in indigenous populations. It refers to a fetus’ response (including growth restriction) to a hostile uterine environment, which has lifelong effects and, potentially, affects her offspring in turn. However, any causal relationship between maternal and offspring fetal growth is confounded by shared genetic and environmental factors. Two family-based approaches addressed this confounding; they provided little support for a hypothesis of heritable fetal disadvantage. In conclusion, significant improvements in fetal health can be expected when maternal risk factors shift, unconstrained by the mother’s own fetal history.

▼ Introduction: Mortality and life expectancy (LE) gaps between Indigenous and all Australians are of public concern. Past measurements relied on Australian jurisdictions where Aboriginal designation is considered reasonably complete, and mostly outer regional and remote. However, most Aboriginal people reside in metropolitan and inner regional areas. Little data is available on adult Aboriginal mortality trends, and no reliable data from New South Wales (NSW). Accurate mortality measurements are necessary to measure health outcome changes, which reflect health service provision, and economic and social conditions affecting Aboriginal people.Aims: This thesis investigates, for the first time, age-, sex- and cause-specific mortality calculated for a large urban Aboriginal Community-Controlled Health Service (ACCHS) cohort in inner-city Sydney, NSW, and compares with other Indigenous mortality estimates in Australia and elsewhere. Methods: Probabilistic death-matching was performed with demographic data from the ACCHS cohort and National Death Index. Life tables were constructed from accepted death matches, age-specific mortality rates and LE extracted for the 1995-2009 period. Cumulative age-standardised adult mortality was calculated for comparison with other Indigenous and national populations from routine death recording and census denominators. Age-specific contributions of mortality to LE gaps were calculated using a decomposition method from constructed and published life tables. ACCHS cohort cause-specific mortality was calculated and compared with other populations. External causes of mortality were analysed comprehensively as an example of a major cause of death category.Results: ACCHS cohort all-cause mortality rates decreased, and LE estimates increased over time. However, relative differences compared with all Australians showed no improvement and relative adult mortality increased over time due to contemporaneous non-Indigenous mortality improvement. Cause-specific ACCHS mortality was similar to recorded Australian Indigenous mortality and significantly greater for external causes and cardiovascular diseases. Accidental drug poisoning was the major contributor to the external causes differential. When compared with New Zealand Māori, ACCHS cohort and Indigenous Australians had greater LE gaps (compared with non-indigenous LE) and premature adult mortality at younger age intervals.Conclusion: An urban Aboriginal cohort showed mortality rates and LE estimates similar to national Indigenous population data from routine death recording and census denominators, although some cause-specific differences.

▼ Housing is a known determinant of health for Aboriginal Australians in remote communities. However, less is known about the impact of housing on health for Aboriginal people who live in urban areas. This thesis provides, for the first time, a systematic examination of the housing of urban Aboriginal people as it relates to health and wellbeing. It examines Aboriginal people’s beliefs about their housing and presents a granular description of the housing conditions of a significant sample of Aboriginal people in identified urban communities participating in phase one of the Study of Environment on Aboriginal Resilience and Child Health (SEARCH), the largest cohort study of urban Aboriginal child health in Australia.Chapter 2 explores the views of Aboriginal people living in Western Sydney about their housing circumstances. Difficulty accessing housing, secondary homelessness, crowding and poor dwelling conditions were described as common. Participants associated housing problems with physical and mental health problems.Chapter 3 examines Aboriginal perspectives about the causes of urban Aboriginal housing disadvantage. Racial discrimination, poverty, marginalisation and a shortage of social and affordable housing were described as key barriers for many Aboriginal people attempting to access housing in Sydney.Chapter 4 describes the housing of the SEARCH cohort and examines differences in exposure to specific housing problems by tenure type. Housing problems were prevalent. While SEARCH families in social housing had significantly better housing stability and affordability than those in private rental, they reported significantly more physical dwelling problems than those in both privately rented and owned homes.In Chapter 5, poor housing conditions were found to be independently associated with recurrent gastrointestinal infection in SEARCH children in a dose-dependent manner. This thesis establishes housing as an issue of major concern for Aboriginal people in urban New South Wales in relation to health and wellbeing. It offers some initial evidence of an association between exposure to housing problems and gastrointestinal infection in urban Aboriginal children. This work provides a platform to better understand housing and health in urban Aboriginal communities and to design, develop and test interventions that aim to improve them.
