The Melbourne Academic Centre for Health welcomes the Victorian Statewide Treaty as a historic step toward truth, justice, and self-determination for First Peoples.

Health and wellbeing of First Peoples is deeply connected to Country, Culture and Community as is recognised in the Treaty. We embrace the Treaty’s invitation to walk forward together, guided by truth, integrity and determination, providing an opportunity to address systemic inequities and create a future where First Peoples lead decisions about their health and wellbeing.

MACH stands committed to continuing to work across our partnership to ensure a fairer, stronger, and culturally safe health system, one that is inclusive and shaped by the voices of First Peoples.
