Notes:  This review paper seeks to explain the health inequality suffered by Indigenous Australians compared to non-Indigenous Australians by examining the social and economic determinants of health in Australian society and where Indigenous people are positioned vis-?-vis those determinants.

For each ‘key determinant’ there is a discussion of Australian research conducted in this area and the programs which have proved beneficial in the Indigenous context.
