Examine a range of issues that impact Aboriginal Australians. Apply your knowledge careers in the health, public or social services industries – or use your learnings to enhance your personal and civic experiences.
While the focus is on contemporary issues, you’ll examine important documents from recent history such as the Royal Commission of Inquiry into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody and the National Inquiry into the Separation of
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children from their families.
This course will attempt to examine a broad range of social, economic and political issues that impact on Aboriginal Australians. These topics will centre around the concepts of racism, social justice, human rights and reconciliation. You’ll also have the opportunity to look at specific issues such as the impact of the NT Intervention, the prevalence of otitis media among Aboriginal children and the ongoing impact of the Stolen Generations on contemporary Aboriginal life.
UniSA Online’s 10-week short courses give you the flexibility to upskill in a certain area, stay current with developments in your field, diversify your knowledge, or even explore a new direction in your career – without having to commit to the time and cost of a full university degree.
