Introduction
In this report, the discussion is made on identifying the factors which affect the health
disparities of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander. The report also discusses principles of
cultural safety applied to the particular indigenous community.
Globalisation affects health consequences
The estimation describes that globalization is also the reason for the increased risk of
health diseases among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. It is because of globalization
increase the threat of tobacco, alcohol which results in increasing dangerous diseases that is in
Australia the majority of the Torres Strait Islander affects from non-communicable disease.
Globalisation increase risk due to more migration of this community which leads in increasing
infectious diseases such as HIV, tuberculosis etc (Carlson, Jones, Harris, Quezada, & Frazer,
2017). One of the reason is also because of an increase in the financial burden; the globalisation
also results in increasing health disparities which include that Torres Strait Islander does not get
specialized treatment which leads in inequality.
The lack of staff and other inadequate facilities leads in increasing health issues among
the community. The health consequences of globalization affect the health of Torres Strait
Islander in a highly negative manner it is because this leads in increasing death rate that is in the
current year 70% of Torres Strait Islander suffered from lung cancer, cardiovascular disease.
Globalisation leads in moving the health policies to the personnel internationally; however, it
significantly affects the health of Torres Strait Islander due to lack of health policies for Torres
Strait Islander. There is a health consequence it is because temporal change leads in influencing
the spread of dangerous diseases which includes which results that it leads in increasing
infectious diseases (Kilcullen, Swinbourne, & Cadet‐James, 2018). The globalization impact
Torres Strait Islander and increase health-related dangerous disease due to raising 70% death of
Torres Strait Islander community because of tobacco. Further, it is estimated that there are
several other factors which increase the health problems among Torres Strait Islander because of
globalisation.
