Today we acknowledge National Close the Gap Day.

Improving health outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples requires a healthcare workforce that is culturally safe, informed and responsive.

As Australia's nursing and midwifery accreditation body, we know that real, lasting change starts in education. ANMAC is committed to education reform aligned with the recommendations of CATSINaM's GENKE II report – working in genuine partnership to ensure nursing and midwifery programs build cultural safety, increase Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander representation in the workforce, and deliver meaningful and lasting change.

This year’s Close the Gap report reminds us that lasting change must be driven by systemic reform and self-determination. Closing the gap in health outcomes is a shared responsibility across the health sector.

This week is Harmony Week, and this year's theme, Everyone Belongs, is one that resonates deeply in the context of healthcare.

For patients and families, being cared for by someone who understands your background, your culture, or your language can make all the difference. For nurses and midwives, working in an environment where everyone feels valued and included strengthens practice and care. Belonging matters at every level of our health system.

ANMAC is proud to support a profession that embraces that. Happy Harmony Week. 🧡

Celebrating International Women’s Day 2026

The theme 'Give To Gain' strongly reflects the reality of nursing and midwifery.

Across our sector, care is not simply delivered – environments are created where people are supported through recovery, healing and compassionate end-of-life care.

The same principle applies within our workforce, where investing in support, opportunity and equity strengthens both individuals and the system as a whole

Nursing and midwifery have historically been professions predominantly made up of women and were among the first to offer pathways to financial independence, professional recognition and leadership.

At ANMAC, we see every day how building equitable environments not only supports women but strengthens the entire healthcare system and community it serves.

This International Women’s Day, we recognise the contribution of nurses and midwives across Australia and the role they continue to play in advancing equitable, high-quality healthcare for all.
