1DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH
Introduction:
The modern Australian society is seen to be subjected to some specific changes
related to the health and culture of the people, which is mainly as a significance of
globalisation (Altman, Biddle & Hunter, 2018). The Significant enhancement in these
cultural divergence in Australia has permitted me to categorize a various number of observes
which are found to be culturally knowledgeable irrespective of the beliefs, values and
approaches (Bodkin-Andrews & Carlson, 2016). The chief example of these culturally
knowledgeable practices which I acknowledged is by the means of the backgrounds prevalent
amongst the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander society in Australia.
Discussion:
With the help of the assessment my learning experiences has become very significant
concerning my awareness regarding the Indigenous population. My personal viewpoints have
been obstructed during this assessment in a drastic manner. This assessment has assisted me
in increasing my consciousness toward the Indigenous community of Australia and the
dissolute battles they have been put through in the past few decades. My reaction to the
indigenous community assessment and its study was entirely different from what I supposed
it would be. My reactions and knowledge have been prompted significantly throughout the
study on the Indigenous population.
I would like to reflect my experience and knowledge that I gained as however I have certainly
not truly been capable of forming my own opinions and theories on the Aboriginal and Torres
Strait Islander communities of Australia. Conversely, now as I’ve been capable enough to
provide an insight into my idea and knowledge towards the Indigenous community and their
culture, I realised after the study that as people would have never talk down to these

communities in detail or treat them inversely, and I know observe them in a diverse light to
the other Australians. I have gone through few study and research on these Indigenous
peoples, and this information have been very helpful in gaining a better knowledge.
Regardless of this, I still embrace this defined idea of a drunken, poor health and homeless
Indigenous community. I believe that most of my knowledge on the history of indigenous
peoples has been obtained through the media.
I understood that the people are unaware of the importance of the Stolen Generation
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community in Australia have been experiencing major
health, employment, economic and social difficulty. As a determination to advance the life
expectancy and decrease the burden of disease, various strategies and different national
frameworks have implanted a human rights-based method in order to achieving health
equivalence (Cormack, Reid & Kukutai, 2019). Even with its beginning in an organization of
law which justified the colonisation and the marginalization of Indigenous (Power et al.,
2018). During the study I understood the innate tensions that is present while engaging with a
law based on worldwide expectations of the Illumination to advance the Indigenous rights
and establish how these Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have been very
influenced, the international human rights and law in their side in order to combat general
health and socioeconomic difficulty.
While there are still ways to go along before the indigenous Aboriginal and Torres
Strait Islander communities witness health equality, the human rights framework provided the
Indigenous Australians with measures to effect the government strategies regarding the health
(Paradies, 2016). Also the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community movements
themselves formed and educated the design and used it in practice of the human rights. I also
explored the origin of the healthcare and human rights framework and the contained risk of
the re-inscribing or repeating neo colonial necessities. I also discover the postcolonial
