🩷 “Ngany Kaarla Koorling – I’m going home” 🩷
A beautiful Aboriginal palliative care resource was created by mob for mob in the Great Southern region of WA. The community working group brought their language, artwork and design to create this wonderful resource, the project was led by local Palliative Care Aboriginal Health Liaison Officer, Colleen Cox.
The project has already sparked vital conversations surrounding palliative care, empowering the Great Southern Community to walk forward in strength to have those difficult conversations in the hopes of breaking down some of the barriers Aboriginal people still face surrounding palliative care.

This project is facilitated by IPEPA, PaSCE in collaboration with WA Country Health, Palliative Care Program.
