Kulay Kalingka Study First Report
Over 2,000 adults participated and answered questions about beliefs, attitudes, and experiences of cancer. This included experiences of receiving care and treatment, having a diagnosis of cancer, and family and kin support.
The first report should be read independently, given the sampling approach used it is not a direct comparison to the second report.
The first study report is available here.
About the data
The findings from the Kulay Kalingka Study are new and provide valuable information about the experiences of the people who participated in the study. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are diverse and also have diverse experiences of cancer. The statistics provided in the report apply only to the participants of the Kulay Kalingka study and cannot be generalised to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
