The source provides a piece of information on the Australian government’s strategy on improving life and health conditions for the Aboriginals by providing indigenous people with the same opportunities and access to healthcare and wellbeing. Those measures were approved by the council of Australian governments, and it is determined to improve the current situation. Moreover, they have already started the process of equalising the living conditions and making positive results. The paper aims to inform the broad audiences about the existing problems and solutions that government implements into the strategy to work on the issues. The crucial problems that indigenous communities face are connected with the accessibility of medical health and decent living conditions for everyone, because nowadays those problems are still not solved completely. This qualitative analysis will help with the further study by identifying the central policy I will work on. It will give an opportunity to observe the current social problem that has been existing for a long time and still requires the development of innovative solutions to reach the progress.

The source observes the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Plan 2013-2023 from a critical point of view. It discusses how the policymakers deal with the indigenous problems and health issues. Specifically, it pays attention that the policymakers work on the problems not from the minorities’ point of view but through the western and privileged white population perspective. The authors have a deep understanding and clear view of the actual struggles and experiences of the indigenous people, and they precisely define uncovered issues and inventive solutions strategies. The paper is aimed at the specific audience with at least some basic knowledge on the indigenous life and experience that realize the importance of the raising the questions of their struggles. It will serve as a supplement to the rest two sources, for it adds a broader perception of the policy from a different perspective and gives an opportunity to analyze it properly. The source was conducted by the qualitative method of the study and research.
