Close the Gap Campaign

Learn more Visit the Campaign

One of the longest running First Nations-led social justice campaigns, Close the Gap formed in 2006 to call out the decade wide gap in life expectancy and disparity in overall health outcomes when comparing First Nations and non-Indigenous peoples.

The Close the Gap Campaign advocates for health equity, equality and improved life outcomes for First Nations Peoples. Without large-scale systemic institutional reforms this cannot be achieved at a national level.
