Walking strong together

Walking strong together

28 May 2025

To reflect the Department of Health's commitment to improving Aboriginal health and wellbeing, we've commissioned an artwork: Bayi Dha-ang: Walk Strong (Dhudhuroa language) by Bitja (Dixon Patten Jnr).

We’ll use this artwork across our work – our offices, policy documents, reports, as a symbol of the cultural connections that influence the work we do with Aboriginal communities in Victoria and what we can all learn from the thousands of years of knowledge and wisdom contained in the lands we all live.
