The PRIDoC Bursary, Our Doctors Ngalla Bidi Our Pathway, supports students to attend the Pacific Region Aboriginal Doctors Congress (PRIDoC).
The Ngalla Bidi Bursary is a way that you can help WA Indigenous Medical Students on their journey towards becoming Doctors.
The bursary offers recipients the life-changing opportunity to attend the Pacific Regional Indigenous Doctors Congress, where they can embrace Aboriginal cultures, the spirit of connection, lifelong friendships, and empower each other through shared learning and experiences of Aboriginal medicine.
Sharing our work and knowledge allows us to be a stronger collective voice to advance our work together. Enhancing cultural responsiveness in Aboriginal health service delivery is a key step, contributing to culturally safe healthcare for Aboriginal people in Western Australia and the generations to come.
Our ambition is to fund at least 40 Ngalla Bidi Bursaries, with the intention for this to become an ongoing commitment, contributing to attendance at future PRIDoC events every two years.
Donations are being accepted until 30 September 2024, and bursaries will be awarded in October 2024.
