Archaeologists believe that aboriginals first came to Australia about 45, 000 years ago and were the only population of humans in Australia until the British invasion. There are about 500 different aboriginal groups each with their own language and territory and usually made up of several separate clans. The aboriginals of Australia are marginalised in today society. This marginalisation began right back during the British invasion where they were evicted from their own country, the stolen generation occurred and their health care, education, employment and housing was severely limited. Aboriginals generally live in poor conditions and choose unhealthy lifestyle choices

Australia’s aborigines are one of the oldest ongoing cultures in the world. Their traditions date back up tens of thousands of years. Before European settlement, there were around 600 different aboriginal nations, based on language groups. Southport was part of the territory of the Indigenous people of the Yugambeh language group. Their land stretched south from Beenleigh along the coast to the tweed and inland to the mountains. The language group was composed of a number of subgroups including the Kombumerri saltwater indigenous people of the Gold Coast.

To begin with, a clarification must be made. Although for the purposes of this assessment I will be using the term Indigenous Australians, it is not the most appropriate term to be using, as the technical definition of indigenous is ‘originating or occurring naturally in a particular place; native’ (‘Indigenous’, 1987). The more correct term would be Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander.

Wild horses of Asstatuge live in Maryland. Asstatuge is an Island so the horses are shown in water. The horses on Asstatug Island survive from each other. Asstatuge's horses are herds of horses so they do not have an owner. That's why they are called wild horses because there don't have an owner.

This is a quiet place in northern Connecticut, where over 11,000 people live. Established in 1768, the town's 26.8 square mile area now includes five separate villages. Trees grow everywhere, and East Windsor feels open and free, as opposed to being overcrowded and urban.

The recent comments made by former Indigenous Australian boxer Anthony Mundine and soprano performer Deborah Cheetham, have sparked a controversial debate regarding the place of “Advance Australia Fair” in modern day Australia. At the centre of this disagreement, there lies a much more serious issue concerning Indigenous Australians and the timing in which the national anthem was introduced in regards to the Stolen Generation. Is it time to change, to mend and assist with reconciliation?

It has been thirty five years since The Aboriginal Health Council of South Australia (AHCSA) was established. It is a membership-based peak body with a leadership, watchdog, advocacy and sector support role, as well as a commitment to Aboriginal self-determination. It is known as the health voice for Aboriginal people across South Australia. AHCSA represents the professional, needs and aspirations of Aboriginal communities. This includes both state and national levels which are built on a comprehensive health approach.

Here in Perth, we are having new inner-city developments that everyone is looking forward to. These developments are fantastic and will bring more tourism and vibrancy to the Perth City. However, a problem that they have is the possibility of destroying the river through increasing turbidity, higher temperatures and more acidity. This is why Perth and its people need fifty million dollars, so that we can protect the Swan River while still being able to build new developments.

The British were looking for a new settlement from 1788 and it was around this time that Australia was founded. On the arrival and colonisation of Australia, the British took over the aboriginal land, due to the land being ‘terra nullius’ which mean ‘land of no one’ in Latin. It was because of this reason that the new British settlers justified their take over of the aboriginal/Torres strait islanders land. The British believed that their culture was superior to all others as they had a modernised society back in the United Kingdom. It was for this reason that the British took half-caste (Mixed race) aboriginal children from their families, and took them to settlement camps run by the state government between the 1900’s and the 1960’s.

Access to health services and facilities is one of the largest influences on the health status of the ATSI population. Access to health services is concerned with allowing all individuals the opportunity to obtain and use appropriate heath care resources in order to improve and/or maintain their health. There is a large range of health services delivered to Australians through various streams including; public health services (preventative care – screenings and immunisations), primary and community health care (GP’s, ambulance, community health services), hospital care (public/private, psychiatric, nursing) and specialised health services (specialist medical practitioners, drug/alcohol treatment, mental health, etc.). Access can be measured by monitoring the use of health care services and facilities, through epidemiology, and through other measures such as waiting times for treatment, bed availability, etc.

Arabic speakers and all Muslims in the city of Toowoomba came to the mosque for early Morning Prayer. Most of them brought their wives and children. I observe their beautiful traditional clothes that represent their culture and traditions. It is observable that some of them are carrying dishes of sweets, fruits and meals. The mosque’s committee bought dates, juice and water and the food brought by people. Some of the mosque’s neighbours and religious denominations were invited to attend the feast and share the happiness with the Muslim community. People put the food on the tables aside and started praying and reading the Qur’an until the time of the sermon. The Sermon began at 8 o’clock and finished at 9.00am. The Imam was talking about the

In today's Ballarat’s economy has developed and the number of investments is increasing over times. This increases in the employment opportunities of the population, that means people will have a job and earn more incomes. This is important, as adequate income is a prerequisite for many other determinants of health, for example, a nutritious diet or educational opportunities. Without adequate income people in Ballarat will face with the poverty issue, which results poor health of the citizens in the community.
