QAIHC has proudly assisted the Brisbane Economic Development Agency in its successful bid to bring the prestigious International Indigenous Wellbeing Conference to Meanjin (Brisbane).

The event is scheduled for 20-21 October and will be hosted in Brisbane city.

Previously held in Auckland, the conference focuses on empowering First Nations peoples in Australia and Aotearoa to uplift their communities’ health and wellbeing. It acknowledges the strength and resilience of Indigenous cultures and celebrates their diversity.

This milestone was achieved through a collaborative effort by QAIHC’s Manager, Social Health Programs, Tiana Lea, and the Communications team.

Ms Lea has since joined the conference’s organising committee, further underlining QAIHC’s commitment to this significant event.

The conference is coordinated by the Australian and New Zealand Mental Health Association, an organisation dedicated to standing alongside First Nations peoples in their pursuit of improved mental health and wellbeing outcomes.
