Clinical Engagement
The NIKTT has consistently engaged with clinical professionals already involved in the Taskforce and others interested in transplantation equity. We have presented abstracts and talks at conferences throughout the last three years, as well as hosting informational booths.
Policy Engagement
The NIKTT has routinely engaged with political parties where appropriate, and the NIKTT's Kelli Owen attended the 2022 Straight Talk Summit in Canberra.
Most recently, the NIKTT has:
-
Provided consultation feedback to the National Strategy for Organ Donation, Transplantation, and Retrieval
-
Engaged in planning workshops with the ODTR team to provide guidance on areas of the strategy relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander kidney transplantation
