What is Closing the Gap?  - Qu'est-ce que Closing the Gap ?

  • Summary

  • Australia has one of the highest life expectancies in the world. On average, Australians live to see their 83rd birthday. But for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, life expectancy is about eight years less. Closing the Gap is a national agreement designed to change that. By improving the health and wellbeing of First Nations, they can enjoy the same quality of life and opportunities as non-Indigenous Australians. - L'Australie a l'une des espérances de vie les plus élevées au monde. En moyenne, les Australiens vivent jusqu'à leur 83e anniversaire. Mais pour les aborigènes et les insulaires du détroit de Torres, l'espérance de vie est inférieure d'environ huit ans. Closing the Gap est un accord national conçu pour changer cela. En améliorant la santé et le bien-être des Premières Nations, celles-ci peuvent bénéficier de la même qualité de vie et des mêmes opportunités que les Australiens non autochtones.
