THE DIFFERENCE YOU’LL MAKE
The money you raise by taking part in the BRIGHT Walk will push our researchers at SAHMRI another step closer to the next life-changing discovery, another step closer to a brighter future. It will help us develop pilot projects, it will help us leverage support from national funding bodies, and it will give a boost to early and mid-career researchers.
Researchers such as Eugene Warrior, the Senior Engagement and Knowledge Broker within the Aboriginal Health Equity Theme. Eugene’s work is all about connecting the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community to research and services, ultimately helping to close the gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous health. He’s keen to be involved in the BRIGHT Walk in July:
“I think it’s a great event. Raising awareness of the phenomenal work being done at SAHMRI, as well as funds to support it into the future, is crucial for our state.“
