    DescriptionAn article on the finalisation and findings of my PhD thesis investigating the links between Indigenous culture and Indigenous health. Speaks to the devaluing of Aboriginal perspectives in research, arguing that Aboriginal people are capable of identifying solutions to issues they face. Presents some findings from yarning conversations from the research about the value of connection to culture for improving the social and emotional wellbeing of Aboriginal young people.
