The course takes a holistic perspective to engage students in exploring the historical, socio-cultural, political and dominant cultural paradigms that influence First Peoples' health today. The First Peoples' Health and Practice course supports students to meet the Griffith University Graduate Attribute E.1 Awareness of and respect for the values and knowledge of Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander First Peoples and to meet the requirements of the relevant professional body's competency standards and codes of professional conduct to provide culturally safe care.
