Our Centre, which is funded by the Commonwealth Department of Health and Ageing up until June 2013, aims to aid the growth in knowledge about Indigenous Tobacco Control.
We began in September 2003 and are based within the Onemda VicHealth Koori Health Unit at The University of Melbourne.
Currently we have 10 full time and part time staff who are working in a variety of ways to boost the profile of Indigenous tobacco control and encourage and assist others undertaking work in this area.
Our Centre brings together knowledge from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisations and tobacco control organisations from around the country to use their expertise in our work.
CEITC's main focus is policy development, research, Indigenous Tobacco Control Worker training, resource development, networking and knowledge exchange.
