Aboriginal Health Plan

The plan sets out a clear pathway and the actions we will take to continue closing the gap and improving life outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. The plan brings together and builds on the work of our previous Reconciliation Action Plan and Cultural Safety Plan, as well as the Monash Health Strategy 2026-2031, Care, Reimagined.

Manamiiyt-dha Aboriginal Health Plan 2026-2031

Manamiiyt-dha Aboriginal Health Plan 2026-2031 is an integrated roadmap that strengthens how we work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to deliver culturally safe care.

The meaning of Manamiiyt-dha

Manamiiyt-dha (pronounced: MUH-nuh-mee-dthuh) means ‘moving towards health’.

It is the Bunurong-language name Elders and Knowledge Holders chose for this Plan, with the formal support of the Bunurong Land Council Aboriginal Corporation.

The word ‘manamiiyt’ carries a richness of meaning: ‘good’, ‘right’, ‘well’, and ‘healthy’. In naming this Plan, Bunurong Elders and Knowledge Holders gave expression to something deeper than a title. The name reflects a commitment to doing things the right way, in a healthy way, and to moving together towards a stronger, healthier community.

That journey is what this new plan is about.

Aboriginal Employment Plan 2025–2028

As an outcome of our Reconciliation Action Plan, our Aboriginal Employment Plan 2025–2028 aims to strengthen and grow our First Nations workforce, while ensuring Monash Health remains a place of opportunity, growth and respect for all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employees.

Our commitment to improving Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health and wellbeing

We are committed to closing the gap and improving life outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

We work in partnership with these communities to achieve best possible outcomes in co-designed systems delivering culturally safe care.

Our organisation is accountable and transparent in engaging our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
