Role Title: Project Intern, Mapping Indigenous Engagement
Organisation: UWA School of Allied Health
Internship Period: Semester 2 (July – October)
Location: Crawley
For the past two and a half years the discipline of Social Work and Social Policy has engaged with Aboriginal Elders and community members to develop a curriculum that is culturally safe and responsive. This project aims to 'map' what has happened over this time and capture any outcomes resulting from this engagement. Recording what has happened over this time will offer an understanding of where we've come, where we are currently and offer opportunities for what might be next. The project will include compiling information to illustrate a timeline of key events, activities, and other related processes on which to further develop.
The School of Allied Health offers pathways to a career in health and social work through postgraduate courses.
Allied health professionals work in the health, social and psychosocial services care team, using specialised skills to provide evidence-based services to patients and other service users.
The School offers professional entry to practice courses in pharmacy, podiatric medicine and social work, as well as health professions education courses for those wishing to become educators in health.
