This program was a two-time finalist at the 2023 AITD awards.

Our work on the Deadly Pharmacists training program supports pharmacists across Australia in delivering culturally responsive care within Indigenous Australian communities.

In collaboration with the Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) and NACCHO, we crafted an engaging, CPD-accredited online course that combines clinical knowledge with a deep understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures.

Featuring animations, videos, and reflective activities, the program equips pharmacists with the tools to address healthcare disparities and make meaningful impacts within their communities.

Since its launch, the course has exceeded enrolment expectations, reinforcing its importance in advancing health equity.
