Health Habitat
Health Habitat, in a survey of 7800 indigenous homes across Australia found 51% of houses without a rubbish bin or service.
Our first project is to conduct a national survey of Waste Services and Waste Infrastructure in disadvantaged communities so we can prioritise our work based on areas of greatest need. We see the need for a baseline study to determine the current status of waste services and infrastructure in indigenous communities in each state and nationally to inform public policy and so we can identify which communities are in greatest need and where our priorities should be directed. Such a study will also enable us to measure our impacts over time./p>
