National Close the Gap Day

Since

2006, the Close the Gap campaign has achieved an enormous amount. This has only happened with community support. In 2012 alone, more than 130,000 Australians joined National Close the Gap Day to show their support, to talk about, to spread the word, and to take action to improve, Indigenous health.

Resources for the day can be found on the Oxfam website, and you can register your event for Thursday (or Sunday!) at:https://www.oxfam.org.au/act/events/national-close-the-gap-day/

There

are now some resources for teachers up online too:  https://www.oxfam.org.au/act/resources-for-teachers/close-the-gap-student-kit/
