N1 - Funding Information: To address the disparities in access to kidney transplantation, the National Indigenous Kidney Transplant Taskforce (NIKTT) was formed under the auspices of the Transplantation Society of Australia and New Zealand with funding from the Australian Government Department of Health. The aims of the Taskforce were to obtain more granular data on barriers to transplantation in conjunction with existing registry data, improve the equity and accessibility of transplantation for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients by trialling a range of multidisciplinary service models and protocols and through the creation and support of Indigenous Reference Groups, and review existing initiatives that target cultural bias in health services to facilitate best practice care and support. Funding Information: K.J.O. is a Kaurna, Narungga and Ngarrindjeri woman; M.D. is a Paakantyi woman; J.T.H. is a Torres Strait Islander woman (Wagadagam). S.P.M. and K.C. are non-Indigenous. The National Indigenous Kidney Transplant Taskforce was funded by a grant from the Australian Government Department of Health to the Transplantation Society of Australia and New Zealand. It was hosted by the South Australia Health and Medical Research Institute. J.T.H. holds an Australian National Health and Medical Research Council Emerging Leadership Investigator Grant (GNT 1174758), which supported her NHMRC leadership role.
