Educating for Indigenous public health competence - how do we stack up in Australia?

CONCLUSION: These findings highlight the need for inclusion of the Indigenous public health competencies to be made obligatory in MPH programs. Implications for public health: Significant gaps remain in public health curricula enabling students to develop competencies that enable them to become judgement safe practitioners when working with Indigenous peoples and communities. A revised curriculum framework document provides a range of useful strategies and resources to remedy these omissions. PMID: 30690820 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
