Population

This section provides information about Indigenous population estimates and distribution, and issues surrounding identification of Indigenous people in data collections and the validity of health information.

It provides information also about various characteristics of the Indigenous population - births (numbers, birth rates, birth weights, etc.) and deaths (death rates, life expectancy, causes of death, etc.) - and the health of various population sub-groups (infant and child health, adolescent health, women's health, men's health, the ageing population, rural and remote populations, urban populations).
