RESEARCH PROPOSAL
Executive Summary
This research proposal is developed with the consideration of the health care access and
the health condition of the people of the Aboriginal community. Rural and remote area of the
Torres Strait Island and the health care access of the people of this community has been
evaluated for the identification of the issues and the reduction of the situation regarding the
obesity rate of the community and also knowledge of the community regarding health. This
paper will be focused on the literature and the government data found in this topic, summary of
the mythology used for the research, a proper interview process and also the reflection of the
research motivation.
Introduction
According to the government data it has been seen that a total of 3.3 per cent of the
population of Australia is Aboriginal people (Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, 2020).
However, the health care for these people are neglected and affected with discrimination. On the
other hand, the factor of the rural and remote area and the lesser access to the health care is also
present for these people. Thus, the remote area and the socio-economic imbalance along the
lower rate of health literacy are the factors which can be marked as the social determinants of
health for the Aboriginal people (Stone & Waldron, 2019). Hence, the health care access
development with the consideration of the health issue reduction of these people should be
focused. Thus, in the following proposal the effective analysis of the issues regarding the health
care access for the people of the Aboriginal community will be conducted with consideration of
obesity development and reduction among these people.
