What is the key health initiative aimed at improving Indigenous health in Australia?

The Close the Gap campaign is a significant health initiative designed to address the disparities in health outcomes between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. Launched in 2007, this initiative aims to reduce the gap in life expectancy, health status, and overall quality of life for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

It involves collaboration between government, non-government organizations, and Indigenous communities to ensure that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have equal access to healthcare services. The campaign focuses on various health issues, such as chronic diseases, mental health, and access to social determinants of health including education and employment. Through targeted strategies, advocacy, and policy change, the Close the Gap campaign promotes systemic improvements in health for Indigenous Australians.

While the other initiatives mentioned may relate to Indigenous health in some capacity, they do not have the same level of recognition or impact specifically aimed at reducing health inequality as the Close the Gap campaign does.
