- W1567831412 abstract "Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people experience higher levels of illness and premature death than the rest of the Australian population. They are also more likely to be incarcerated, experience family violence, have lower levels of education and employment, and suffer from excessive use of alcohol and other substances. Within the Indigenous population, men are faring worse than women as age-specific death rates for men are higher than for women in every age group and between the ages of 15 and 24, the rates are four times higher. For Indigenous people living in rural and remote settings, the situation is even more serious due to inadequate services, isolation, lack of employment opportunities and endemic alcohol and other drug misuse. Despite efforts to improve the situation over the last 30 years, evidence suggests deterioration in many aspects of Aboriginal health and wellbeing. Consequently, Aboriginal community leaders and activists have called for more innovative and empowering interventions that enhance people's capacity to take greater control and responsibility for their situation. This paper analyses a participatory action research (PAR) process which aims to engage and support the members of a rural Aboriginal men’s health group in Yarrabah, north Queensland to, in their own words 'take their rightful place in society'. The paper highlights the potential of participatory research approaches to enable Aboriginal men develop common understandings of their social circumstances as a basis for taking action to improve their situation. The findings of the study have important implications for: a) health promotion interventions in rural and remote Aboriginal settings; and b) the roles that academic researchers can play in supporting and adding value to community-driven initiatives to the mutual benefit of both parties." @default.
