Working to Close the Gap: Stronger government action needed

16 February, 2026

For over a decade, Australians have marked Close the Gap Day on the third Thursday of March in support of achieving equitable health outcomes for First Nations Peoples.

On 19 March 2026, IEU members are asked to contemplate the persistent gap in health outcomes between First Nations and non-First Nations Peoples.

Given the latest Productivity Commission Annual Data Compilation Report (ADCR) released in July 2025 shows only four (4) of 19 National Agreement on Close the Gap targets and indicators are on track to be met, meaningful action to improve the lives of First Nations Peoples is more important than ever.
