Students at Southern Queensland and Bremer Institute of TAFE Kingaroy and Nurunderi TAFE campuses have acknowledged both \u2018Close the Gap\u2019 and \u2018Harmony Day\u2019 events with informal barbecues and open discussions to discuss multicultural issues.<\/p>\n

Campus Business Co-ordinator Santina Schmocker said the social, open-forum lunch discussions fostered intelligent, insightful conversations, and brought students up to speed on Indigenous health issues in particular.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s important all students and staff understand and have empathy for the challenges people of different cultures face, including the difficulties Indigenous Australians encounter when accessing health care,” she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe gap is there, and this was our small contribution \u2013 conversational yet educational sessions \u2013 to move towards closing it.\u201d<\/p>\n
