Transforming Indigenous Mental Health and Wellbeing

TIMHWB. (2021). Social and Emotional Wellbeing Gathering: 30-31 March 2021. Transforming Indigenous Mental Health and Wellbeing Grant, The University of Western Australia, Poche Centre for Indigenous Health.

SUMMARY

Over two days in March 2021, delegates from across Australia attended a gathering in Perth, Western Australia, to discuss social and emotional wellbeing (SEWB).

The aim of the SEWB Gathering was to bring together Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peak bodies, community organisations, leaders, experts, and front-line workers to create a national SEWB blueprint for the future by exploring: 1) where we have been, 2) where we are now, and 3) where we are going.

The SEWB Gathering was hosted by the Transforming Indigenous Mental Health and Wellbeing Project (TIMHWB), the National Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisation (NACCHO), and Gayaa Dhuwi Proud Spirit Australia (GDPSA).
