What is Closing the Gap?  - Hir’ina guutuu jechuun maali?

Australia has one of the highest life expectancies in the world. On average, Australians live to see their 83rd birthday. But for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, life expectancy is about eight years less. Closing the Gap is a national agreement designed to change that. By improving the health and wellbeing of First Nations, they can enjoy the same quality of life and opportunities as non-Indigenous Australians. - Lubbuu dheerachuu namootaa ilaalchisee Australiyaan biyya lafaa irraa biyyoota duree tahan keessaa ishee tokko.
