N1 - Funding Information: IRGs need financial support for both establishment and continued engagement. Costs are as low as $500 per meeting to cover sitting fees, catering and venue. Secured funding for the sustained support of IRGs is an easy obstacle to overcome once the benefits are considered. As units create new Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander staff positions within kidney teams, more facilitators become available to ensure the cultural safety and continuity of each group. Jaqui Hughes was supported by a National Health and Medical Research Council Fellowship (1174758). The Australian Government, represented by the Department of Health and Aged Care, funded the National Indigenous Kidney Transplantation Taskforce (NIKTT) through an Indigenous Australians’ Health Programme grant. This funding supported the salaries of three of the authors (Kelli Owen, Katie Cundale, and Matilda D'Antoine) and covered the publication fees of this MJA supplement. We thank the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people living with kidney disease and transplantation who were involved in the establishment of Indigenous Reference Groups around Australia, as well as their families, carers and communities. We appreciate your dedication to change and your openness to sharing your experiences and visions for the future with us. We acknowledge and appreciate the work and dedication of the consumer engagement working group members, as well as all members of the NIKTT, who contributed to the development and implementation of this work.
