ATSI workshop

Date: 17th May 2009
Time: 8.30am - 4.00pm
Venue: Perth Exhibition and Convention Centre

Welcome to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Pre Conference Workshop with the theme “Health Promotion, Our Way- Evidence, Advocacy & Action.”

While we are making progress in health promotion, an ongoing need for improved health programs and health outcomes are required in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health.

This is an exciting opportunity for Western Australia to provide a stimulating program showcasing health promotion that embraces Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people’s approach to health. The event will provide an opportunity for participants to share knowledge and vision, discover new contacts and networks, rekindle old ones and re-energise discussion and debate regarding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health nationally.

The event will consist of keynote speakers which lead into concurrent and workshop sessions. These will appeal to a range of practitioners and professionals from various disciplines. 

The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Pre Conference Workshop steering committee must be acknowledged for their invaluable expertise in putting together what we anticipate will be an exciting and enjoyable program.

We look forward to your participation, and trust you will gain valuable knowledge and insight to advance your skills and practice in health promotion into the future.
