In partnership with the Aboriginal Medical Services Alliance, the FCMHW NT Division co-facilitated a workshop for young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander males on the 22 October 2021 to encourage them to think about pursuing career pathways into the community health sector. Men are currently under-represented in the NT health workforce, including nursing and allied health.
FCMHW Trainee Jahdai Vigona co-lead the workshop and shared his own story of becoming a health researcher to showcase how the young men could play a part in helping people to heal and keep their communities healthy and socially and emotionally well.
