HEALTH INFO // TORRES HEALTH
“With over 45 years of community-controlled health service provision in Australia, there is clear evidence that community-controlled health services are more effective at meeting the health needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
This is why we have established a community-controlled health service for the Torres Strait.”
Torres Health Indigenous Corporation
Saltwater People worked with the Torres Health CEO and Board to illustrate the health and wellbeing of people across the Torres Strait region.
Analysing key data on population, life expectancy, burden of disease, Saltwater People visualised key health disparity between people living in QLD and those in the Torres Strait region.
